Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ui: '--help' output links to <https://guix.gnu.org/help/>.
Date: Tue,  1 Sep 2020 22:41:36 +0200
* guix/ui.scm (show-bug-report-information): Link to
<https://guix.gnu.org/help/> instead of <https://www.gnu.org/gethelp/>.
The former is much more useful and includes links to GNU manuals.
