Thanks for taking a look!

I pushed these patches with two minor changes: added the ‘configuration’
action to dicod, and documented ‘shepherd-configuration-action’.

  8b56983999 home: services: redshift: Add 'configuration' action.
  8d9647d8a7 services: Add Shepherd 'configuration' action to various services.
  ebc7de6a1e services: shepherd: Define 'shepherd-configuration-action' helper.

Ludo’.
