[bug#68935] [PATCH v3 0/7] Add insert option to guix import.

[Herman Rimm via Guix-patches via <guix-patches@gnu.org>]

Hi,

Thanks for the feedback. Biggest issue I see is, e.g.:

  (define-public package-bar)
  ;; Unlikely comment about package-bar.
  
  (define for-package-foo)
  ;; Comment related to package-foo.
  (define-public package-foo)

after inserting package-baz becomes:

  (define-public package-bar)
  ;; Unlikely comment about package-bar.
  
  (define for-package-foo)
  ;; Comment related to package-foo.
+ (define-public package-baz)
+
  (define-public package-foo)

but for a language read from top-to-bottom I would rather want:

  (define-public package-bar)
+  
+ (define for-package-baz)
  ;; Unlikely comment about package-bar.

  (define for-package-foo)
  ;; Comment related to package-foo.
  (define-public package-foo)

This would be the case if package-baz is inserted after package-bar,
rather than before package-foo. I don't intend to implement this though,
and for the large gnu/packages/crates-*.scm files, where alphabetical
--insert is most useful, I believe this issue is the least likely to
occur. So despite the issue, I think these patches can be upstreamed.

Cheers,
Herman
