Subject: Unaltered Git source
Date: Thu, 19 Nov 2020 16:28:20 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAKjnHz2Y_bYZNffrpq-91RkdjpqsS-fcD-xHriMZOcQpaQSdOg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

Is there a way to retrieve the unaltered source of a Git project in a
`(package ...)` definition? I'm using `%build-inputs` to retrieve the
source, but this is a directory in /gnu/store, and all of the file
permissions are changed to read-only (0400), which unfortunately causes
problems with the project's build.
