Isn't the emacs/.git dir is included in the hash calculation if it's
left in there? I believe that guix calculates these hashes without the
.git dir IIRC. Not sure of great ways to work around this without moving
the './emacs/.git' dir outside of ./emacs during your build, as .git
dirs contain all kinds of non-reproducible state on disk
