bug#51657: [PATCH] scripts: home: Make ‘guix home import’ populate ‘home-configuration.scm

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hello,

Xinglu Chen <public@yoctocell.xyz> skribis:

> * guix/scripts/home.scm (process-command): Populate ‘home-configuration.scm’
>   in the destination directory instead of printing to stdout.
> * doc/guix.texi (Declaring the Home Environment): Adjust accordingly.
> (Invoking guix home): Likewise.

Applied with the changes below.  This is looking nice now!

Thanks!

Ludo’.
