| 2021-07-18 | pack: Streamline how files are included in tarballs....Thanks to Guillem Jover <guillem@debian.org> on the OFTC's #debian-dpkg
channel for helping with troubleshooting.
Letting GNU Tar recursively walk the complete files hierarchy side-steps the
risks associated with providing a list of file names:
1. Duplicated files in the archive (recorded as hard links by GNU Tar)
2. Missing parent directories.
The above would cause dpkg to malfunction, for example by aborting early and
skipping triggers when there were missing parent directories.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (self-contained-tarball/builder): Do not call
POPULATE-SINGLE-PROFILE-DIRECTORY, which creates extraneous files such as
/root. Instead, call POPULATE-STORE and INSTALL-DATABASE-AND-GC-ROOTS
individually to more precisely generate the file system. Replace the list of
files by the current directory, "." and streamline the way options are passed.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (reduce-directories): Remove procedure.
* tests/file-systems.scm ("reduce-directories"): Remove test.

| 2021-06-29 | pack: Prevent duplicate files in tar archives....Tar translate duplicate files in the archive into hard links. These can cause
problems, as not every tool support them; for example dpkg doesn't.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (reduce-directories): New procedure.
(file-prefix?): Lift the restriction on file prefix. The procedure can be
useful for comparing relative file names. Adjust doc.
(file-name-depth): New procedure, extracted from ...
(btrfs-store-subvolume-file-name): ... here.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (self-contained-tarball/builder): Use
reduce-directories.
* tests/file-systems.scm ("reduce-directories"): New test.

| 2020-05-20 | bootloader: grub: Allow booting from a Btrfs subvolume....* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (strip-mount-point): Remove procedure.
(normalize-file): Add procedure.
(grub-configuration-file): New BTRFS-SUBVOLUME-FILE-NAME parameter. When
defined, prepend its value to the kernel and initrd file names, using the
NORMALIZE-FILE procedure. Adjust the call to EYE-CANDY to pass the
BTRFS-SUBVOLUME-FILE-NAME argument. Normalize the KEYMAP file as well.
(eye-candy): Add a BTRFS-SUBVOLUME-FILE-NAME parameter, and use it, along with
the NORMALIZE-FILE procedure, to normalize the FONT-FILE and IMAGE nested
variables. Adjust doc.
* gnu/bootloader/depthcharge.scm (depthcharge-configuration-file): Adapt.
* gnu/bootloader/extlinux.scm (extlinux-configuration-file): Likewise.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (btrfs-subvolume?)
(btrfs-store-subvolume-file-name): New procedures.
* gnu/system.scm (operating-system-bootcfg): Specify the Btrfs
subvolume file name the store resides on to the
`operating-system-bootcfg' procedure, using the new
BTRFS-SUBVOLUME-FILE-NAME argument.
* doc/guix.texi (File Systems): Add a Btrfs subsection to document the use of
subvolumes.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (%btrfs-root-on-subvolume-os)
(%btrfs-root-on-subvolume-os-source)
(%btrfs-root-on-subvolume-installation-script)
(%test-btrfs-root-on-subvolume-os): New variables.

| 2020-05-20 | file-systems: Add helpers for parsing the options string into an alist....* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (file-system-options->alist)
(alist->file-system-options): New procedures.
* tests/file-systems.scm: New tests.
* doc/guix.texi (File Systems): Add note about the newly added procedures.

| 2017-09-14 | uuid: Move tests to 'tests/uuid.scm'....* tests/file-systems.scm ("uuid->string", "string->uuid")
("uuid", "uuid, syntax error"): Move to...
* tests/uuid.scm: ... here. New file.
("uuid, ISO-9660, format preserved"): New test.

| 2017-09-14 | uuid: Adjust tests....This is a followup to 9b336338cdc0e46a3bf7a2913c2f61cd2410c4d6.
* tests/file-systems.scm ("uuid"): Add call to 'uuid-bytevector'.
("uuid, syntax error"): Add 'dce to the expected form.
