Okay, that makes sense. I tried to use `guix graph` to learn the shape of the package graph but it doesn't work as expected since these packages don't refer to their dependencies in the typical way. I thought that using the 'derivation' graph type might help but I don't think that I can process it on my computer `dot`. It's been going for hours now... Many of the "new packages" are actually semver-compatible updates to existing packages, and these updates often change the list of cargo-inputs dependencies. Given that, I don't know how to learn the right order of things to commit one at a time that will never break the build. Would we have the same issue with updating this kind of large package tree automatically with `guix refresh` and committing the changes one at a time?
