| * | lib.packagesFromDirectoryRecursive: Allow non-"path" `directory`•••As initially designed, `lib.packagesFromDirectoryRecursive` allowed
passing a string for the `directory` argument. This is necessary for
several reasons:
- `outPath` on derivations and Flake inputs is not a path.
- Derivations can be coerced to their `outPath` in string interpolation,
but that produces strings, not paths.
- `builtins.path`, bizarrely, returns a string instead of a path (not
that the documentation makes this clear).
If a path is used instead of a string here, then Nix will dutifully copy
the entire directory into a new path in the Nix store (ignored as
WONTFIX by Eelco in https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/9428). For
industrial use cases, this can result in an extra 10-15 seconds on every
single eval just to copy files from one spot in the Nix store to another
spot in the Nix store.
In #361424, this was changed so that `directory` must be a path,
breaking these use-cases.
I'm not really sure what happened here -- #361424 has very little
justification for why it exists, only a reference to a previous version
of the PR (#359941), which itself had very little justification given.
The description on #359941 explained that it would "Shrink the
function's code by ~2/3rd đ", but 60% of the reduction in size was just
deleting comments (!) and bindings like `directoryEntryIsPackage` that
helped clarify the intent of the implementation. As a result, the new
implementation is (to my eyes) more challenging to read and understand.
I think the whole thing was in service of #392800, which adds a
`newScope` argument in order "to create nested scopes for each
(sub)directory (not just the top-level one) when `newScope` is given."
Nobody noticed this regression until after the commit was merged. After
@phanirithvij pointed out the regression, @nbraud said they would
"shortly prepare a PR to fix this" [1] but did not. Later, they would
explain that they were "quite ill the last month(s)" [2], which explains
why this got forgotten about. @nbraud also requested a review from
@Gabriella439 [3], as she had reviewed the original PR adding
`lib.packagesFromDirectoryRecursive`, but not from me, the original
author of that PR. @Gabriella439 did not review the "refactor" PR, and
no attempt to contact her or myself was made after that initial request.
This behavior is admittedly rather subtle, so I'm not sure either
Gabriella or myself would have noticed the change (especially since the
relevant PR restructures the entire implementation).
While I find this a bit frustrating, I should have added a test for this
use-case in my original PR; if there was a test that relied on passing
paths in as a string, perhaps the authors modifying this code would have
noticed that the implementation was not an accident.

the Lix repo's CI annoying.
We should probably also test other nix versions than stable (i.e. also
latest and Lix), but this involves writing GitHub Actions about it and
maybe not running it on every single PR. Future work.

| | |\ \ \ |
|
| | | * | | | lib, treewide: introduce `repoRevToName`, use it in most `fetch*` functions•••This patch adds `lib.repoRevToName` function that generalizes away most of the
code used for derivation name generation by `fetch*` functions (`fetchzip`,
`fetchFromGitHub`, etc, except those which are delayed until latter commits
for mass-rebuild reasons).
It's first argument controls how the resulting name will look (see below).
Since `lib` has no equivalent of Nixpkgs' `config`, this patch adds
`config.fetchedSourceNameDefault` option to Nixpkgs and then re-exposes
`lib.repoRevToName config.fetchedSourceNameDefault` expression as
`pkgs.repoRevToNameMaybe` which is then used in `fetch*` derivations.
The result is that different values of `config.fetchedSourceNameDefault` now
control how the `src` derivations produced by `fetch*` functions are to be
named, e.g.:
- `fetchedSourceNameDefault = "source"` (the default):
```
$ nix-instantiate -A fuse.src
/nix/store/<hash>-source.drv
```
- `fetchedSourceNameDefault = "versioned"`:
```
$ nix-instantiate -A fuse.src
/nix/store/<hash>-libfuse-2.9.9-source.drv
```
- `fetchedSourceNameDefault = "full"`:
```
$ nix-instantiate -A fuse.src
/nix/store/<hash>-libfuse-2.9.9-github-source.drv
```
See the documentation of `config.fetchedSourceNameDefault` for more info.

| | * | | | | lib/tests: avoid full rebuild when only maintainers change•••The vast majority of CI jobs to build the lib tests are caused by
changes in the maintainer list. In this case, we currently run the full
test-suite which takes 3-4 minutes. By moving the maintainers and teams
tests out of the test-with-nix file, we save almost all of that.
Building only those two tests on a change is almost instant. This only
works, because we previously enabled cachix for the workflow.
Note, that these tests are not actually run with both nix versions, even
though they were listed in the "test with specific nix version" file.
That's because we only differ in the nix version run *inside* the
sandbox, but not doing the outer build.
Since this file seems to be re-used by NixOS/nix' CI, this is
technically a small loss in coverage for that repo, but nixpkgs CI
considerations outweigh that. But because of this, I left the other
non-nix-version-specific tests in that file.

| * | | | Revert "lib.meta.availableOn: Return false if pkg parameter is null"•••I believe this change is wrong both theoretically and practically.
Theoretically, `null` is available on every platform, because
`buildInputs = [ null ];` always succeeds and never throws a platform
availability error. `null` should be handled consistently with packages
that have no explicit list of supported platforms, as it of course
has no such list itself.
Practically, we use `null` to represent libraries that are always
present on a platform and do not require a library (for instance,
because they are part of `libc` or the macOS SDK). This has been
used for a long time by `libintl` (on all nonâglibc platforms),
and is also now used by `libGL` and friends on Darwin. This change
broke the check SDL3 does for OpenGL availability on Darwin, causing
<https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/407056>, which had to be
worked around by <https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/409525>.
Both `libintl` and `libGL` should count as available on platforms
where their functionality is part of the standard build environment,
and a package that is completely unavailable and whose functionality
cannot be expected should not use `null`, as it should result in
errors if used in a dependency list on an unsupported platform.
I accept that overriding with `null` is often a useful way to disable
dependencies that donât have explicit feature flags, but I do not
think that making it work better with feature flags conditioned on
availability is worth the inconsistency and problems caused by this
change. Packages can instead expose the relevant feature flags as
arguments that default to the `lib.meta.availableOn` check or, if they
want to keep an âoverride the dependency to `null`â interface,
insert an explicit `pkg != null && âŠ` check.
Additionally, the pull request was merged over a week after all
breaking changes were restricted for the 25.05 release. I believe that
the potential problems of dealing with the effects of this change for
an entire release cycle â the first release cycle where `libGL` is
`null` on Darwin, a change I made before the deadline and before this
change to `lib.meta.availableOn` â offset the risks of backporting
this revert at such a late stage.
It will cause overrides to backwardsâincompatibly revert to the
behaviour they had before the change, but since such overrides were
not possible until a few weeks ago, I hope that is an acceptable risk
compared to the potential issues leaving this in the release can
cause, given that it was merged after the deadline and has already
broken an existing construction in Nixpkgs.
This reverts commit 9338d924dbe0c6b93daec3bf435322812fd176fe.
