From: Raphaël Mélotte
Subject: [bug#66258] [PATCH] doc: suggest using pre-inst-env for git-send-email on foreign distros
Date: Thu, 28 Sep 2023 15:58:03 +0200

On foreign distros, not using pre-inst-env when using git-send-email results
in a backtrace ending with: no code for module (guix ui)
This can be confusing as users did not have to use pre-inst-env to use
git-send-email before.

* doc/contributing.texi (Sending a Patch Series): add a note to suggest using
pre-inst-env when calling git-send-email on foreign distros.
