So I am probably out-of-scope and/or irrelevant. One milestone could be to have Git tags and "guix pull" would 'jump' between these tags. For an end-user like me, tags ease: a. the commit range specification (#1) b. memorize what I have already verified (#6) Moreover, it would feed a variant of OPAM path or Qubes path as you summarized here [1] or mitigate attacks if I understand the answers there [2] or [3].
