Why not just do:
guix shell -- make metadata
I do like the idea of not making it depend on guix.
One of the things I am trying to avoid, though, is typing long
guix commands.
When I type "make guix-shell", what I really want is something
like:
guix-shell:
guix time-machine -C channels.scm -- shell --pure --check -m
manifest.scm
Or if I am doing embedded work I might want type "make
serial-shell" to do something like:
serial-shell:
guix time-machine -C channels.scm -- shell -m manifest.scm
--container --expose=$(PORT) picocom -- picocom -b 9600 -f n -y
n -d 8 -p 1 -c $(PORT)
I guess I am just curious how other people manage such long
commands?
