6c1bb54483 * In the installation CD, make the NixOS/Nixpkgs available as if they
were obtained from the NixOS channel.  "nixos-install" copies this
  to the installed system as well.
* In the installation CD, set GC_INITIAL_HEAP_SIZE to a low value for
  the benefit of memory-constrained environments.

eb755d4692 switched all mergeOptionString to pkgs.lib.types.string
pierron recommended the use of types.string over mergeOptionString, as
it is superior but might break things.

For my system the change evaluated to the exactly same.

8eba736da9 * Use the ‘path’ attribute in Upstart jobs in more places. It's a bit
more readable (also in "ps" output).

d77fc84d2f * For consistency, use /etc/nix/nix.conf instead of /nix/etc/nix/nix.conf.
There is really no reason to have a configuration file outside of /etc,
  and it's consistent with what the Fedora/Debian packages for Nix use.

20b364f4de Reverting revisions 30103-30106: "always set nixpkgs.config.{state,store}Dir", etc.
After the change from revision 30103, nixos-rebuild suddenly consumed
freaky amounts of memory. I had to abort the process after it had
allocated well in excess of 30GB(!) of RAM. I'm not sure what is causing
this behavior, but undoing that assignment fixes the problem. The other
two commits needed to be revoked, too, because they depend on 30103.

Don't assume /nix/store or /nix/var in NixOS modules, this is configurable

00f3a816a9 Adding a possibility to add more paths to chroots used by nix-daemons. The use-case is building the latest version from repository with very large checkouts. That way you do not get extra copy in store every time you rebuild, and you can implement a saner version checking than checksumming all the data

f729f12e4e Some cleanups in the activation script:
* Moved some scriptlets to the appropriate modules.
* Put the scriptlet that sets the default path at the start, since it
  never makes sense not to have it there.  It no longer needs to be
  declared as a dependency.
* If a scriptlet has no dependencies, it can be denoted as a plain
  string (i.e., `noDepEntry' is not needed anymore).

c089738bdc * Use the shadow' package instead of pwdutils', `pam_login' and
`su'.
* The `usermod' from `shadow' allows setting a supplementary group
  equal to the user's primary group, so the special hack for the
  `nixbld' group is no longer needed.
* Removed /etc/default/passwd since it's not used by the new passwd.
  The hash is configured in pam_unix.
* Move some values for `security.setuidPrograms' and
  `security.pam.services' to the appropriate modules.

60b3f95ad8 * Move the definition of the set of system packages to
modules/config/system-path.nix.  system/system.nix is now almost
  empty.
* Removed the cleanStart option - it should be possible to get the
  same functionality by overriding config.system.path (or defining
  config.system.systemPackages with a higher priority - don't know if
  that works though).

5ebdee3577 * Continued refactoring the tree: moved most Upstart jobs (namely
those that run daemons) to modules/services.  This probably broke
  some things since there are a few relative paths in modules
  (e.g. imports of system/ids.nix).
* Moved some PAM modules out of etc/pam.d to the directories of NixOS
  modules that use them.
