I don't get what you mean when you say pull is actually the opposite of push? That's true in the sense of the words, but how does that relate to Guix? > - upgrade: This is the only good one as this is very common term used > within distros or actually most of the operating systems generally. > > - reconfigure /etc/config.scm: hmm... > > There are many ways we can improve this by using different better > terms which can be easily memorized and even linked e.g: (These are > just examples, If there are any better terms you can come with sure > why not) > > - pull -> update or refresh I think update is OK, although I think pull is OK too. refresh is already taken. > - upgrade -> can be kept or package-upgrade > - reconfigure /etc/config.scm -> dist-upgrade or distro-upgrade or > system-upgrade You can "downgrade" (switch to using an older Guix/software) by reconfiguring, so I wouldn't like to see that operation referred to as an upgrade (as it's not always). --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQKlBAEBCgCPFiEEPonu50WOcg2XVOCyXiijOwuE9XcFAmCC1pFfFIAAAAAALgAo aXNzdWVyLWZwckBub3RhdGlvbnMub3BlbnBncC5maWZ0aGhvcnNlbWFuLm5ldDNF ODlFRUU3NDU4RTcyMEQ5NzU0RTBCMjVFMjhBMzNCMEI4NEY1NzcRHG1haWxAY2Jh aW5lcy5uZXQACgkQXiijOwuE9XcWBw//S0V8qwntItO18BO2dyn0ucM8gF45IBU/ lkzRfAV2x/SavtgZQr9CyCmi2tI+gL2+MlkadpDekBTjlZMYMwQs5RPNpZ/xzQBS HHf5WyI5VGZcFyOyL0/gYhs2vTHLNunw8VSyIHJx3L2N7u1XbysFJG4tSN0xhBWp KkM4RQrdDIOpiPU101PwIbfeKbDDH88kECz8UnwYScmvoMOh/J0p+uUhZesNF+1h efmv49flXL+Tr3czG+gzHQIj9P0lMAdyy28/MKlm4NvH/5Y12eFAN61sSxrc2FLp YBcNy851VByahADqH2vxmnasPsmXNSNCIalmkSZJvD/cm26r1WLSckfuR4pUSF6L +svn46a/gFcAcwzd9laiAFTamaEQ913yPLUwrANMzY4WPRLBhfAWKuhCb6dGFdVg gfV3eEtV1OSaaxw4brdImAptl0ZbopVyfZ1lL1CrzrjDRLsPS1j2dgDvQ7VdVKDz 8CgoTuxDMoSKv0v5dGZCvLyqBZ3l9ApqVdZA0Fge1BYdWexIvVDXvcG4loM5hcOb p4SgFfOpAWieIc7HlNUwWKAuwMQAjp6ntqydAJA25sMc/hdk/qQ8x5ebqU+6sym4 V2Yl0Gj9uzG9JnPqatbX//2ob2iDvlfxYQK6eEWq5hnFL1J1zKInu5xEUxZR8ECe I4wk/MeGCC4= =f2Sy -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
