=============
Newbie user here. I'm curious about how `home-bash-configuration'
works, so I wanted to jump to its definition. I know that one way of
doing this is cloning the Guix repository and executing grep to search
that string. In fact, I did this and found it in
`gnu/home/services/shells.scm'.
Using common sense, I knew that that file also existed in my system,
so I was wondering how I could have accomplished the same objective
without having to download the Git repository, just in case some day I
don't have internet connection

2 The question
==============
How to know which of these files is currently being used by my
system? I'm sure not all of them are being used. I'm somewhat
familiar with how generations work, but in other words, I'd like to
know how to determine which of these files is the one that is being
used by the current generation.
