[bug#54393] [PATCH 0/2] Add 'guix manifest' to "translate" commands to manifests |

Hello Guix!
Writing manifests can be intimidating: in part because it’s not
well documented, and in part because it’s always hard to start from
a blank page.
We have ‘guix package --export-manifest’ to help with that, but I
realized that colleagues of mine often use ‘guix shell’ more than
‘guix package’, and ‘--export-manifest’ is awkward to use:
$ guix shell a b c d --transform=whatever=else
[env]$ guix package --export-manifest -p $GUIX_ENVIRONMENT
I figured that instead of documenting this, we might as well provide
a command that does it in one go:
guix manifest a b c d --transform=whatever=else > manifest.scm
Voilà!
Thoughts?
Next up: adding a “Writing Manifests” section.
Ludo’.

packages: Add 'package-unique-version-prefix'.
Add 'guix manifest'.
