This line gets the name of the directory in which (current-filename),
i.e. /path/to/mes/guix.scm lies.

This adds /path/to/mes/guix to the Guile load path.

This loads git/mes.scm from the load path (see above) and makes its
public bindings available.

This is just a variable, probably exported by the (git mes) module,
which should itself be a (package ...) description.
