When #9863 converted the `Nix::Store` free functions into member functions, the
implicit `this` argument was not accounted for when iterating over the variable
number of arguments in some functions.
Seems like this got dropped at some point during meson migration, so
put it back in the build system.
Drop all tests for `parseGitUrl`, since that function doesn't exist
and migrating doesn't look sensible because git-lfs stuff seems to use
`ParsedURL`.
Note that in pure mode, we don't need to use the union FS even when
using a chroot store, since the user shouldn't have access to the
physical /nix/store.
By appending a colon to MANPATH NIX_MAN_DIR gets prepended to the
final MANPATH before default search paths.
This makes man still consider default search paths, but prefers
NIX_MAN_DIR (if it exists).
It still makes sense to point NIX_MAN_DIR to a correct location
by moving man pages build from nix-manual.man to nix-cli.man, but
this should fix most common use-cases where nix is installed globally.
... as intended.
Requirements:
- don't build fresh libraries for each git commit
- have git commit in the CLI
Bug:
- echo ${version} went into the wrong file => use the fact that it's
a symlink, not just for reading but also for writing.
Logging to another Logger was kind of nonsensical - it was really just
an easy way to get it to write its output to stderr, but that only
works if the underlying logger writes to stderr.
This change is needed to make it easy to log JSON output somewhere
else (like a file or socket).
It is unused in Nix currently, but will be used in Hydra. This reflects
what Hydra does in https://github.com/NixOS/hydra/pull/1387.
We may probably to use it more widely for better SSH store performance,
but this needs to be subject to more testing before we do that.
This is a first step towards PR #10760, and the issues it addresses.
See the Doxygen for details.
Thanks to these changes, we are able to drastically restrict how the
rest of the code-base uses `ParseDerivation`.

It's best we teach users that the "foo" derivation is less than pure in the sense that it cannot be built just on any system, in particular that builders cannot be selected arbitrarily but based on their system-features. The `"recursive-nix"` system-feature is automatically defined by `--extra-experimental-features recursive-nix`
