Author: Ludovic Courtès <address@hidden>

    environment: Rename '--inherit' to '--preserve'.
    
    Suggested by Eric Bavier and Ricardo Wurmus.
    
    * guix/scripts/environment.scm (show-help, %options): Emit a deprecation
    warning for "--inherit" and add -E/--preserve.
    * tests/guix-environment.sh: Adjust accordingly.
    * doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix environment): Update accordingly.

+When used alongside @option{--pure}, preserve the environment variables
 matching @var{regexp}---in other words, put them on a ``white list'' of
 environment variables that must be preserved.  This option can be repeated
 several times.
