* Based on [upstream Nix 2.30.1](../release-notes/rl-2.30.md).
## What's Changed
### Non-blocking evaluation caching
Users reported evaluation would occasionally block other evaluation processes.
The evaluation cache database is now opened in write-ahead mode to prevent delaying evaluations.
PR: [DeterminateSystems/nix-src#150](https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/nix-src/pull/150)
### New experimental feature: `external-builders`
This experimental feature allows Nix to call an external program for the build environment.
The interface and behavior of this feature may change at any moment without a correspondingly major semver version change.
