This uses the single-threaded C-based routines from libblake3.
This is not optimal performance-wise but should be a good starting point
for nix compatibility with BLAKE3 hashing until a more performant
implementation based on the multi-threaded BLAKE3 routines
(written in Rust) can be developed.
This fixes dynamic derivations, reverting #9081.
I believe that this time around, #9052 is fixed. When I first rebased
this, tests were failing (which wasn't the case before). The cause of
those test failures were due to the crude job in which the outer goal
tried to exit with the inner goal's status.
Now, that error handling has been reworked to be more faithful. The exit
exit status and exception of the inner goal is returned by the outer
goal. The exception was what was causing the test failures, but I
believe it was not having the right error code (there is more than one
for failure) that caused #9081.
The only cost of doing things the "right way" was that I had to
introduce a hacky `preserveException` boolean. I don't like this, but,
then again, none of us like anything about how the scheduler works.
Issue #11927 is still there to clean everything up, subsuming the need
for any `preserveException` because I doubt we will be fishing
information out of state machines like this at all.
This reverts commit 8440afbed7.

Using `set --local` is better than using `set`/`set --erase`. `--local`
will preserve any existing `NIX_LINK` value. And the local variable is
automatically removed for any execution path.
This allows a flake to specify that it needs Git submodules to be
enabled (or disabled, if we ever change the default) on the top-level
flake. This requires the input to be refetched, but since the first
fetch is lazy, this shouldn't be expensive.
Currently the only attribute allowed by `inputs.self` is `submodules`,
but more can be added in the future (e.g. a `lazy` attribute to opt in
to lazy tree behaviour).
Fixes#5312, #9842.
It seems reasonable to add the `share` folder from the user profile into
`$XDG_DATA_DIRS` both for daemon and profile execution. Nix could add
package shared files into this folder regardless of how the nix daemon
itself is running.
If we previously fetched by revision, the output of "git ls-remote"
won't start with the expected line like
ref: refs/heads/master HEAD
but will be something like
5c4410e3b9891c05ab40d723de78c6f0be45ad30 refs/heads/5c4410e3b9891c05ab40d723de78c6f0be45ad30
This then causes Nix to treat that revision as a refname, which then
leads to warnings like
warning: could not update cached head '5c4410e3b9891c05ab40d723de78c6f0be45ad30' for 'file:///tmp/repo'
This causes Git to create a local ref named refs/head/<rev>, e.g.
$ git -C ~/.cache/nix/gitv3/11irpim06vj4h6c0w8yls6kx4hvl0qd0gr1fvk47n76g6wf1s1vk ls-remote --symref .
5c4410e3b9891c05ab40d723de78c6f0be45ad30 refs/heads/5c4410e3b9891c05ab40d723de78c6f0be45ad30
7f6bde8a20de4cccc2256f088bc5af9dbe38881d refs/heads/7f6bde8a20de4cccc2256f088bc5af9dbe38881d
which confuses readHead(), leading to errors like
fatal: Refusing to point HEAD outside of refs/
warning: could not update cached head 'd275d93aa0bb8a004939b2f1e87f559f989453be' for 'file:///tmp/repo'
