For example, instead of doing
#include "nix/store-config.hh"
#include "nix/derived-path.hh"
Now do
#include "nix/store/config.hh"
#include "nix/store/derived-path.hh"
This was originally planned in the issue, and also recent requested by
Eelco.
Most of the change is purely mechanical. There is just one small
additional issue. See how, in the example above, we took this
opportunity to also turn `<comp>-config.hh` into `<comp>/config.hh`.
Well, there was already a `nix/util/config.{cc,hh}`. Even though there
is not a public configuration header for libutil (which also would be
called `nix/util/config.{cc,hh}`) that's still confusing, To avoid any
such confusion, we renamed that to `nix/util/configuration.{cc,hh}`.
Finally, note that the libflake headers already did this, so we didn't
need to do anything to them. We wouldn't want to mistakenly get
`nix/flake/flake/flake.hh`!
Progress on #7876
The short answer for why we need to do this is so we can consistently do
`#include "nix/..."`. Without this change, there are ways to still make
that work, but they are hacky, and they have downsides such as making it
harder to make sure headers from the wrong Nix library (e..g.
`libnixexpr` headers in `libnixutil`) aren't being used.
The C API alraedy used `nix_api_*`, so its headers are *not* put in
subdirectories accordingly.
Progress on #7876
We resisted doing this for a while because it would be annoying to not
have the header source file pairs close by / easy to change file
path/name from one to the other. But I am ameliorating that with
symlinks in the next commit.
When working on speeding up the CI,
I triggered a race condition in the creation of the tarball cache.
This code now instead will ensure that half-initialized repositories
are no longer visible to any other nix process.
This is the error message that I got before:
error: opening Git repository '"/Users/runner/.cache/nix/tarball-cache"': could not find repository at '/Users/runner/.cache/nix/tarball-cache'
Since #8766, invalid base64 is rendered in errors, but we don't actually
want to show this in the case of an invalid private keys.

libgit2 didn't write thin ones, hence the patch.
This should improve performance on systems with weak I/O in ~/.cache,
especially in terms of operations per second, or where system calls
are slower. (macOS, VMs?)
