b13fd4c58e Fix why-depends for CA derivations
why-depends assumed that we knew the output path of the second argument.
For CA derivations, we might not know until it's built. One way to solve
this would be to build the second installable to get the output path.

In this case we don't need to, though. If the first installable (A)
depends on the second (B), then getting the store path of A will
necessitate having the store path B. The contrapositive is, if the store
path of B is not known (i.e. it's a CA derivation which hasn't been
built), then A does not depend on B.

f7ab93b068 manual: build action -> build task
after discussing this with multiple people, I'm convinced that "build
task" is more precise: a derivation is not an action, but inert until it
is built. also it's easier to pronounce.

proposal: use "build task" for the generic concept "description of how
to derive new files from the contents of existing files". then it will
be easier to distinguish what we mean by "derivation" (a specific data
structure and Nix language value type) and "store derivation" (a
serialisation of a derivation into a file in the Nix store).

Move savedArgv into libmain

a2a8cb10ac Dodge "trusted" vs "trustworthy" by being explicit
Hopefully this is best!
2022-09-22 14:37:52 -04:00

752f967c0f "valid signature" -> "trustworthy signature"
I just had a colleague get confused by the previous phrase for good
reason. "valid" sounds like an *objective* criterion, e.g. and *invalid
signature* would be one that would be trusted by no one, e.g. because it
misformatted or something.

What is actually going is that there might be a signature which is
perfectly valid to *someone else*, but not to the user, because they
don't trust the corresponding public key. This is a *subjective*
criterion, because it depends on the arbitrary and personal choice of
which public keys to trust.

I therefore think "trustworthy" is a better adjective to use. Whether
something is worthy of trust is clearly subjective, and then "trust"
within that word nicely evokes `trusted-public-keys` and friends.

27be54ca53 nix develop: Ignore stdenv's $SHELL
Stdenv sets this to a bash that doesn't have readline/completion
support, so running 'nix (develop|shell)' inside a 'nix develop' gives
you a crippled shell. So let's just ignore the derivation's $SHELL.

This could break interactive use of build phases that use $SHELL, but
they appear to be fairly rare.

Docs: Add nix develop --command entry
Add example of nix develop being used to execuate a series of script
commands. This is common when doing things like CI/CD, and should be
represented in the official documentation.

Also useful for people looking for the 'nix develop' equivalent of
'nix-shell --run'.

bb411e4ae1 Fix progress bar flicker with -L
This was caused by -L calling setLogFormat() again, which caused the
creation of a new progress bar without destroying the old one. So we
had two progress bars clobbering each other.

We should change 'logger' to be a smart pointer, but I'll do that in a
future PR.

Fixes #6931.
