The manual describes how to fetch Guix from Git in section =E2=80=9814.1 Building from Git=E2=80=99, including how to verify the authenticity of the copy. Quoting the part in question: > If you want to hack Guix itself, it is recommended to use the latest > version from the Git repository: > > git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git > > How do you ensure that you obtained a genuine copy of the > repository? To do that, run =E2=80=98guix git authenticate=E2=80=99, pass= ing if the > commit and OpenPGP fingerprint of the =E2=80=9Cchannel introduction=E2=80= =9D (*note > Invoking guix git authenticate::): > > guix git authenticate 9edb3f66fd807b096b48283debdcddccfea34bad \ > "BBB0 2DDF 2CEA F6A8 0D1D E643 A2A0 6DF2 A33A 54FA" > > This command completes with exit code zero on success; it prints an > error message and exits with a non-zero code otherwise. I have encountered two problems here: 1.=E2=80=98guix git authenticate=E2=80=99 only works after the branch =E2= =80=98keyring=E2=80=99 has been set up locally; I=E2=80=99ve been told to achieve this with the command =E2=80=98git fetch upstream keyring:keyring=E2=80=99, but =E2= =80=98git checkout keyring=E2=80=99 has worked for me, too. After that, it seems to be necessary to switch back to the master branch to successfully run =E2=80=98guix git authenticate=E2=80=99. I think the commands for this = should be included in this section. 2. The word =E2=80=98if=E2=80=99 seems to be a typo of =E2=80=98it=E2=80= =99. I first thought that the sentence was incomplete and that the command should pass if the commit and the fingerprint [did something]. :) Not sure how the first one would be solved the best.
