Yup! :-)

I went ahead and applied the three patches.  I took the liberty to make
two changes:

  1. Changed “Do you mean” to “Did you mean”;

  2. Display hints after errors, as is done elsewhere.

It’s really pleasant!

(I thought: when one types “guix clone”, should we suggest “git clone”? :-))

Thanks!
