I am used to develop on things which I do not have to build and they usually just work. Branching was never an issue. However with guix it started to become one apparently, as I can build the guix sourcetree from git clone with the master checkout but not while being on the local branch I created to work on lispf4, which does track the master. I know it used to work, but this is strange for me. What are some ways, other than directly working on master and rebasing often, people here do interact with git while working on guix? In other words, how do you locally handle guix development? -- ng/ni* vcard: http://krosos.sdf.org
