Revert "services: home: Use pairs instead of lists." This reverts commit dbeef44f3c520816251bde74c1005915a637e1ef. Despite the more semantically correct data type, it doesn't follow the style of the most services and also breaks user-facing API. Change-Id: Ib4ef4e9cd2f53ac853a5b7c7c90e57c35c99a5ea

services: xorg: Add xorg-start-command-xinit procedure. When the user does not use any desktop environment, the typical sequence is to log in and then type `startx' into the tty to get a window manager running. Most distributions do provide a startx by default, but Guix has only an xorg-start-command that is not suitable for this. This commit adds a second procedure, xorg-start-command-xinit, that correctly picks a virtual terminal to use, sets up XAUTHORITY and starts xinit with the correct arguments. That should make running Guix without a desktop environment more approachable. * gnu/services/xorg.scm (xorg-start-command-xinit): New public procedure. * doc/guix.texi (X Window): Document it.

maint: Suggest ‘guix git authenticate’ for initial authentication.

gnu: docker: Allow passing tarballs for images in oci-container-configuration. This commit allows for loading an OCI image tarball before running an OCI backed Shepherd service.

doc: Make changes to the handling of branches. Require that you create a "Request to merge" issue when you create a branch, rather than when you wish to merge it. This should help avoid this step being missed. Also, add information on how to manage these branches: 1. Suggest creating the branch from patches, rather than having a stateful branch, since this should help to reduce complexity and avoid merges. 2. Require that branches don't have unnecessary changes, since this increases the risks of conflicts with other branches. 3. Suggest that the branch not be stateful, and it's just a combination of patches. 4. Suggest avoiding merges since these create a more complicated Git history. 5. Suggest that the branch be up to date before merging, as this helps avoid the combination of master plus the branch differing significantly from the branch alone. 6. Document how to manage branches without commit access. Finally, require that the branch be deleted once they're merged. This prepares for the branch being created again. * doc/contributing.texi (Managing Patches and Branches): Make changes to the handling of branches.
