2021-09-19	Clippy cleanup	Alan Somers
	And this time, start running Clippy in CI
2021-07-24	Mark most C-derived enums as non_exhaustive	Alan Somers
	Since libc may add new variants at any time, Nix's consumers should not use exhaustive match patterns. Fixes #1182
2021-07-07	Overhaul Nix's error types	Alan Somers
	For many of Nix's consumers it be convenient to easily convert a Nix error into a std::io::Error. That's currently not possible because of the InvalidPath, InvalidUtf8, and UnsupportedOperation types that have no equivalent in std::io::Error. However, very few of Nix's public APIs actually return those unusual errors. So a more useful API would be for Nix's standard error type to implement Into<std::io::Error>. This commit makes Error a simple NewType around Errno. For most functions it's a drop-in replacement. There are only three exceptions: * clearenv now returns a bespoke error type. It was the only Nix function whose error couldn't be cleanly mapped onto an Errno. * sys::signal::signal now returns Error(Errno::ENOTSUP) instead of Error::UnsupportedOperation when the user passes an incompatible argument to `handler`. * When a NixPath exceeds PATH_MAX, it will now return Error(Errno::ENAMETOOLONG) instead of Error::InvalidPath. In the latter two cases there is now some abiguity about whether the error code was generated by Nix or by the OS. But I think the ambiguity is worth it for the sake of being able to implement Into<io::Error>. This commit also introduces Error::Sys() as a migration aid. Previously that as an enum variant. Now it's a function, but it will work in many of the same contexts as the original. Fixes #1155
2020-05-31	Convert the crate to edition 2018	Alan Somers

2020-05-17	Replace void crate with Rust standard lib Infallible type	Ossi Herrala
	std::convert::Infallible has been available since Rust 1.34 and nix currently targets Rust 1.36 or later so this should not cause problems. Fixes #1238
2017-12-04	Stop reexporting `Errno` and its variants	Jonas Schievink
	cc #664 (unsure if this is everything needed)
2017-11-05	Use libc_enum! where possible	Wolfgang Ginolas
	Some enums which use different names for values than libc still set the discriminators manually. closes #254
2016-07-14	Name enum variants after the libc constants	Sergey Bugaev
