These are meant for hacking on Guix itself, meaning having a git
checkout of the source readily available.  They aren't typically useful
in the context of *using* Guix.  Guix the package also shouldn't be
manually installed to a profile ('guix pull' manages its special profile
for it).

Finally, a better tool has been developed, which lives in the
etc/commiter.scm script.

I'm closing the issue.

Thanks for the report!
