For example, I see that git-cola (https://git-cola.github.io/) have an interface to apply patches [1] (the user still needs a way to download the patches to apply them) but AFAIU it does not have an interface for "git format-patch"; I guess it should not be too hard to add it as a custom GUI action [2] Could git-cola be a tool to help people who dislike CLI/TUI tools contribute to Guix (or other email based patch management projects) smootly?
