Hi all,

If you try to guix pull now, this is what you'll see:

   guix pull: error: commit 39465409f0481f27d252ce25d2b02d3f5cbc6723
   not signed by an authorized key:
   2841 9AC6 5038 7440 C7E9 2FFA 2208 D209 58C1 DEB0

There is and was no security risk.

This is Guix working as intended in the presence of a commit pushed 
earlier today.  The failing commit[0] is benign, and the committer did 
nothing wrong.

The commit is signed by a subkey of the main key that Guix expects, and 
it does not deal well with that fact.  This is something we'll have to 
discuss and probably fix, both in Guix and in the git push hook on 
Savannah[1].

I'm currently waiting to hear from the Savannah admins, who are the only 
ones who can roll back master for us.  I'm not aware of any way we could 
do this ourselves.  I'll follow up when it's done.

Until then, you can:

   1. Not pull.  If your Guix was relatively recent, you're not missing 
much if anything.

   2. If you must have the very latest (valid) commit, you can run:

      guix pull --commit=ad878a2c5e5313c534ccf2546cb8c978e5295ae1

      which will validate just fine.

   3. I do NOT recommend disabling authentication.  There is simply no 
benefit to that.

TTYL,

T G-R

I tried a few other random things to wriggle out of this but I think 
we're stuck (which is, design-wise, probably a good thing).

Now I eat,

What a great opportunity to switch to using "main" instead of "master"
anyways. :)

I thought git was going to at some point make "main" the default new
branch name instead of "master" anyways. May as well get ahead of the
game, now that there's a technical reason to consider switching branch
names anyways.

live well,

I'm not aware of a technical reason to switch branch names.

But: Guix should not assume 'master' anywhere, and maybe we can remove 
it from %default-guix-channel too.  Logically, if "master" no longer 
occurs in the code, we should be good to go... no?  All we have to do is 
make sure the cache follows suit or is deleted.

Some effort was made (I think by civodul) to simply track the upstream 
HEAD, whatever branch that happens to be, although I don't know if that 
was ever completed.  It's possible that some assumptions snuck in that 
we won't notice until we switch.  But it should certainly be possible.

Kind regards,

T G-R

OK, having read up on the mood in #guix I think I understand the 
reference.

But I don't think that would have been a good idea, and I wouldn't have 
supported it.

Yes, this is something we should do.  There’s preliminary work here:

  https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49252

I eventually lost track of what the problem was, but we should resume.

For what it's worth, I now use 'history' for primary development
branches when possible.

For me, it establishes a preeminence among branches by function rather
than name. Plus, I like writing "It was merged into 'history'."

Kind regards

I use trunk! I think the metaphor is the most accurate, but I'm open to whatever.
