Could you please elaborate on what the challenge is?
Is the challenge in inferring when they are using a personal checkout?
Would it be a challenge to have the user provide an option instead?
Said option could either be passed in explicitly every-time, or a
command provided to allow the user to set/unset the option (which would
get stored, say, in .git/config under guix "authentication") and the
code updated to read the preference from there.
