My question is regarding writing of commit messages for sending in patches for GNU Guix. Previously I tried to simply answer all questions mentioned at https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Change-Logs.html#Change-Logs However, it turned out, that that was not the desired format. Now I would like to make a patch for a new version of a package and I would like to get the format right this time. I also remember it being mentioned, that there is some tools distributed with GNU Guix, that is supposed to help with that. Can you provide links for the documentation of how to get the commit message right or provide instructions of the necessary steps to take?
