Unreleased

[0.5.0] - 2020-11-06

Added

• Allow specifying output directory to write nix.conf and netrc files.
• Allow pushing without a Signing key using only auth token
• Allow setting auth token via $CACHIX_AUTH_TOKEN shell variable

Fixed

• Watch store command now pushes the full closure of each store path
• Support groups when parsing trusted-users from nix.conf

0.3.8 - 2020-06-03

Added

• cachix push --omit-deriver if you'd like not to reveal Deriver field to Cachix

Changed

• Retries are now exponential to offload the server a bit

Fixed

• #308: Test failure due to dependency bump

• Pretty print exceptions

• Create nixos directory before checking if it's writable

• A number of error messaging improvements:

  • Don't suggest creating a cache when generating keypair as it's the wrong order

  • #290: Explain what is going on when there's no signing key

  • #262: improve instructions when on NixOS and the user is untrusted

0.3.7 - 2020-03-12

Added

• Allow specifying number of parallel jobs when pushing: cachix push mycache -j8

Changed

• Print stderr during streaming of nars

Fixed

• Use max up to 8 cores to prevent performance issues on machines with lots of cores

• Get deriver and references from C++ structures rather then shelling out (slight performance improvement)

• #251: Assert nar hash before creating narinfo

  Fixes rare but annoying bug of "bad nar archive" from Nix. Never managed to reproduce. One theory is that the path disappears as its deleted by GC or nix-store --delete.

• Print correct path when passing --nixos-folder and encountering an error

0.3.6 - 2020-02-22

Fixed

• #275: support LTS-13.x and GHC 8.2.2

0.3.5 - 2020-01-10

Added

• #265: print store path size before compressing/pushing

Fixed

• #258: don't swallow exceptions while --watch-store
• NixOS: instruct to use sudo

0.3.4 - 2019-10-01

Fixed

• #240: push: prefer store paths as command arguments over stdin

  Some programming languages like go and nodejs always open stdin pipe, which confuses cachix to think there's stdin content.

  Sadly checking stdin for contents is tricky since we get into the whole buffering mess.

0.3.3 - 2019-09-25

Fixed

• #236: fix hang during push
• #233: push: if multiple caches exist, pick the latest signing key

0.3.2 - 2019-09-16

• #232: brownbag release due to a bug in release process

0.3.1 - 2019-09-16

Fixed

• #229: correctly assert write permissions for NixOS
• #228: flush stderr before exiting

0.3.0 - 2019-09-03

Changed

• #222 allow NixOS installation only as root
• #215 LTS-14.0 support and for development replace stack2nix with haskell.nix
• #216 add bulk store path querying as a performance optimization
• #222 drop support for Nix 2.0.1 or lower

Fixed

• #222 Provide guidance if /etc/nixos is not writable
• #222 Human friendly exception reporting
