I missed this because I assumed all Exprs were recursed into by
bindVars, but ExprLet's ExprAttrs field is not really its own AST node,
so it doesn't get recursed into.
The single-string syntax '>=8.16.0 <8.17.0' only applied the lower
bound, causing curl 8.17.0 to be incorrectly rejected. Split into two
separate version_compare() calls for compatibility with Meson 1.1,
since multi-argument syntax requires Meson 1.8+.
This partially reverts commit bc6b9ce.
This transformation is unsound and thread unsafe. Internal libgit2
structures must *never* be shared between threads. This causes
internal odb corruption with e.g.:
nix flake prefetch-inputs:

Thread 21 "nix" received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
Without this dependency, e.g. `meson compile nix-instantiate`
would produce a broken symlink, or the `nix` it points to may be
stale.
With the dependency in place, `meson compile nix-instantiate`
produces a reliable outcome.
On FreeBSD, sysctl(KERN_PROC_PATHNAME) returns a null-terminated
string with pathLen including the terminator. This causes Nix to
fail during manual generation with:
error:

error: input string '/nix/store/gq89cj02b5zs67cbd85vzg5cgsgnd8mj-nix-2.31.2/bin/nix␀'
cannot be represented as Nix string because it contains null bytes
The issue occurs because generate-settings.nix reads the nix binary
path from JSON and evaluates it as a Nix string, which cannot contain
null bytes. Normal C++ string operations don't trigger this since they
handle null-terminated strings correctly.
Strip the null terminator on FreeBSD to match other platforms (Linux
uses /proc/self/exe, macOS uses _NSGetExecutablePath).

Since the root cause (the lack of backpressure control) has
been fixed in the previous commit we can revert the change from
8ffea0a018 and make the default size much
smaller.
Instead of naively stalling the download thread we can instead stop the transfer.
This allows the other multiplexed connections to continue downloading (and unpacking),
if the result of the download gets piped into a GitFileSystemObjectSink.
Prior art in lix project:
- 4ae6fb5a8f
- 12156d3beb
This patch is very different from the lix one, since we are using a decompression sink
in the middle of the pipeline but the co-authored-by is there since I was motivated to
implement this by looking at the lix side of things.

Similar to the deepSeq fix, toJSON on deeply nested structures caused
an uncontrolled OS-level stack overflow.
Fix by adding call depth tracking to printValueAsJSON.
When deepSeq encounters an error while evaluating a list element, the
error trace now includes the list index, making it easier to locate
the problematic element.
builtins.deepSeq on deeply nested structures (e.g., a linked list with
100,000 elements) caused an uncontrolled OS-level stack overflow with
no Nix stack trace.
Fix by adding call depth tracking to forceValueDeep, integrating with
Nix's existing max-call-depth mechanism. Now produces a controlled
"stack overflow; max-call-depth exceeded" error with a proper stack
trace.
Closes: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/7816
this is a painful change. we should really add EvalState or EvalMemory
as an argument to various functions as we need it, but because we want
to preserve the stablity API, we hack it in as a field of nix_value.
