Among other things, this will allow *2nix tools to output plain data
while still being composable with the traditional
callPackage/.override interfaces.
Summary:
According to git-submodule manpage,
"git submodule status" prefixes the hash with a '-' if it is not
initialized, and other chars in other circumstances.
(this is consistent on the various git versions tested)
nix-prefetch-git runs "git submodule init" which does you'd think,
but apparently despite this earlier versions of git before 2.16
would still give the hash the '-' suffix.
In particular this is the behavior when using 2.15 and 2.14.1
from the nixos-17.09 and nixos-17.03 channels respectively.
The script then used awk to drop the first char of the first field
which does the wrong thing when there is no prefix emitted:
while there is a space character before the hash, this is not
part of the field and so we ended up eating the first character
of the hash.
To fix this in a way that also works with the previous behavior,
this commit instead uses awk to grab the hash field
and uses tr to delete any '-' chars should they be present.
This seems to work in my testing, and for example can now
successfully fetch the source for "nginxModules.brotli"
where previously it would generate an error:
fatal: '22564a95d9ab58865a096b8d9f7324ea5f2e03e' is not a commit and a branch 'fetchgit' cannot be created from it
(we dropped a '2' from the beginning of the hash)
We still ensure the old and new ones start, respectfully, with `a/` and
`b/`. Use with `stripLen` to ensure tha the old `a/` and `/b` are gone
if a new prefix is added.
cargo-vendor generates almost the right cargo config. Store it with the
vendored files and patch it on use.
This allows to re-use the generated config when using git dependencies.
- All deps go on the PATH
- CC and Bintools wrappers with their host != depender's host still get their
setup hooks run.
- Environment hooks get applied to all packages
This isn't so elegent, but eases the transition on a very significant
PR.
We now have the information to properly determine the role the
cc-wrapper dependency has, by taking advantage of `offset`. No longer
use the soon-to-be-deprecated crossConfig environment variable, the
temp hack used before this change.
Changes:
* doesn't handle root user separately
* doesn't chdir("/") which makes using it seamless
* only bind mounts, doesn't symlink (i.e. files)
Incidentally, fixes#33106.
It's about two times shorter than the previous version, and much
easier to read/follow through. It uses GLib quite heavily, along with
RAII (available in GCC/Clang).
* Wrap LEN macro in parantheses
* Drop env_filter in favor of stateful environ_blacklist_filter,
use execvp instead of execvpe, don't explicitly use environ
* Add argument error logging wherever it makes sense
* Drop strjoin in favor of asprintf
* char* -> const char* where appropriate
* Handle stat errors
* Print user messages with fputs, not errorf
* Abstract away is_str_in (previously bind_blacklisted)
* Cleanup temporary directory on error
* Some minor syntactic and naming changes
Thanks to Jörg Thalheim and Tuomas Tynkkynen for the code review!
