Hi,

I wrote a patch to the git updater in Guix, making it able to
update packages like guile-next, emacs-next and minetest-throwing-arrows,
that simply point to the latest commit in the git repository at the
time the package definition was updated.

It uses the procedure 'remote-create-detached', introduced in
<https://gitlab.com/guile-git/guile-git/-/commit/e709df09cdaf5aeccfb2e4e0e47bfe4a5fc301ee>.

But that's not yet in any release, so I had to copy the definition
and use some @@ and (use-modules (git bindings) (system foreign)).

No other new procedures were needed.

Could a new version of guile-git, with remote-create-detached, be released?

Greetings,
Maxime.

Nevermind, seems easy to work around with call-with-temporary-
directory. A new release of guile-git would still be nice, though.
Also, Erik Edrosa seems to have somehow disappeared from CC.
