132cae44f2d031bdaa1e459b92ec89ad585dfc9f doc: Mention the flat directory structure for uploads (Andrew Chow) fb17c99e35e72f3b21ec3b5473e84c21dc964776 guix: Don't include directory name in SHA256SUMS (Andrew Chow) Pull request description: The SHA256SUMS file can be used in a sha256sum -c command to verify downloaded binaries. However users are likely to download just a single file and not place this file in the correct directory relative to the SHA256SUMS file for the simple verification command to work. By not including the directory name in the SHA256SUMS file, it will be easier for users to verify downloaded binaries.
