I merged it with the one above.
I’m really happy we have these two new commands now, it fixes a glaring
lack.
Thanks for your hard work and patience!
With this in place, and once you’ve recovered from this patch series
;-), it should be relatively easy to add ‘guix system
delete-generations’ (similar to ‘guix package --delete-generations’.)
WDYT?
The next more complicated thing would be to see what needs to be done so
we can restart system services upon roll-back.
