2019-03-17guix build: Transformation options match packages by spec.Ludovic Courtès
This allows us to combine several transformations on a given package, in particular '--with-git-url' and '--with-branch'. Previously transformations would ignore each other since they would all take (specification->package SOURCE) as their replacement source, compare it by identity, which doesn't work if a previous transformation has already changed SOURCE. * guix/scripts/build.scm (evaluate-replacement-specs): Adjust to produce an alist as expected by 'package-input-rewriting/spec', with a package spec as the first element of each pair. (evaluate-git-replacement-specs): Likewise. (transform-package-inputs): Adjust accordingly and use 'package-input-rewriting/spec'. (transform-package-inputs/graft): Likewise. (transform-package-source-branch, transform-package-source-commit): Use 'package-input-rewriting/spec'. (transform-package-source-git-url): Likewise, and adjust the REPLACEMENTS alist accordingly. (options->transformation): Iterate over OPTS instead of over %TRANSFORMATIONS. Invoke transformations one by one. * tests/scripts-build.scm ("options->transformation, with-input"): Adjust test to compare packages by name rather than by identity. ("options->transformation, with-git-url + with-branch"): New test.
2019-03-17packages: Add 'package-input-rewriting/spec'.Ludovic Courtès

* gnu/packages/aux-files/run-in-namespace.c (exec_with_proot): New function. (main): When 'clone' fails, call 'rm_rf'. [PROOT_PROGRAM]: When 'clone' fails, call 'exec_with_proot'. * guix/scripts/pack.scm (wrapped-package): Add #:proot?. [proot]: New procedure. [build]: Compile with -DPROOT_PROGRAM when PROOT? is true. * guix/scripts/pack.scm (%options): Set the 'relocatable?' value to 'proot when "-R" is passed several times.

2019-03-14build-system/go: Build with a filesystem union of Go dependencies.Leo Famulari
This basically changes (guix build-system go) so that instead of looking up its dependencies in a list of directories in $GOPATH, all the Go dependencies are symlinked into a single directory.
