I'm late to the party, but I notice that when I run this in
guix-maintenance, I get an error:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix git authenticate 8a7e10b447b574279a7016ae6ea15bc7bcd46253 "3CE4 6455 8A84 FDC6 9DB4  0CFB 090B 1199 3D9A EBB5"
guix git: error: Git error: cannot locate remote-tracking branch 'keyring'
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Am I doing something wrong?
