civodul pushed a commit to branch master
in repository guix.

commit 247649d42e60b718f3f46b2bcf72d19bf799d503
Author: Ludovic Courtès <address@hidden>
Date:   Sun May 12 12:21:48 2019 +0200

    vm: 'system-docker-image' provides an entry point.
    
    This simplifies use of images created with 'guix system docker-image'.
    
    * gnu/system/vm.scm (system-docker-image)[boot-program]: New variable.
    [os]: Add it to the GC roots.
    [build]: Pass #:entry-point to 'build-docker-image'.
    * gnu/tests/docker.scm (run-docker-system-test): New procedure.
    (%test-docker-system): New variable.
    * doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix system): Remove GUIX_NEW_SYSTEM hack and
    '--entrypoint' from the example.  Mention 'docker create', 'docker
    start', and 'docker exec'.

 This command starts a new Docker container from the specified image.  It
 will boot the Guix system in the usual manner, which means it will
 start any services you have defined in the operating system

+Depending on what you run in the Docker container, it
 may be necessary to give the container additional permissions.  For
