MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit * guix/scripts/system.scm (roll-back-system, switch-to-system-generation): new actions. (reinstall-grub): New procedure, used by switch-to-system-generation. (show-help, process-command, guix-system): Honor the new actions. * doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix system) : Add the new actions. : In the footnote, mention that the new actions also only work on GuixSD.
