If we branch = v1.2 early, our release will have no forward path to master, so all our use= rs will get an error when running guix pull. No, that=E2=80=99s fine as long as there=E2=80=99s a path from the source c= ommit to the target commit. It=E2=80=99s the same as running =E2=80=98guix pull --branch=3Dstaging=E2= =80=99 today for instance. Ludo=E2=80=99.
