Dear,

As well, I am still starting to have some issue with the new machinery
and my workflow is less flowing. :-) For example, I regularly type "guix
pull --commit=3D<hash> -p /tmp/foo" to test something and now I need more
than sometimes to type "--allow-downgrades".  And I have not intensively
used "guix time-machine" since this new machinery but I have the feeling
that "--disable-authentication" will be necessary too in my workflow.


In the light of your message and a previous one by Ludo...

...maybe it is time to have a configuration file for Guix.  Something to
specify default options command by command.  Or maybe some alias.  Maybe
something like ~/.config/guix/config.scm.


WDYT?


All the best,
