I'd be happy to help with the efforts! I just took a few minutes and checked 
both repos out into a single working tree, and there aren't many commits unique 
to each repository. The official savannah repo has 5 commits since they 
diverged, with the 3 oldest looking like variations of the 6 oldest in the 
gitlab repo. Likewise, not counting the 6 just mentioned, there are 4 unique 
commits in the gitlab repo. Those 4 commits are:

* c9aef52 - (gitlab/master, gitlab/HEAD) elisp/ui-package: Add 
'guix-package-use-name-at-point' variable (12 months ago)<Alex Kost>
* e5ff0e5 - elisp/ui-package: Fix an error on package name read (12 months 
ago)<Alex Kost>
* 8ce6d21 - Rename 'guix-search-…' to 'guix-packages-…' commands (1 year, 3 
months ago)<Alex Kost>
* fbc2bbc - elisp/ui-package: Use thing at point for 'guix-packages-by-name' 
command (1 year, 3 months ago)<Alex Kost>

Cheers,

P.S For full reference, the remotes are:
gitlab  https://gitlab.com/emacs-guix/emacs-guix.git
official        git://git.savannah.gnu.org/guix/emacs-guix.git

`git merge-base gitlab/master official/master` returns the hash:
