It means version 3 is used all the time, right?  Well, I miss when or
where version 4 is used then.

From my understanding, set #:format-version to 3 should only be
considered when <hash> is a parent/ancestor of current commit in
’--commit=<hash>’.

Well, I do not remember all the discussion about --allow-downgrades.
For instance, why is

     $ guix pull --commit=6f75565b -p /tmp/test

not complaining about downgrade?  Because it is a downgrade. :-)


I think version 3 should be only used when the option --allow-downgrades
is provided.


Cheers,
simon
