2021-04-04 | doc: Remind developers to build Guix....The previous instructions were correct, but we got too many bug reports
with a root cause of "did not build Guix yet".
Other parts of the manual already instruct `make && make check`, so this
makes the treatment of building Guix more consistent, too.

2021-03-15 | services/qemu-binfmt: Use the F flag and the static output of QEMU....Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/36117>.
Before this change, the 'binfmt_misc' entries registered for QEMU would not be
usable in container contexts outside of guix-daemon (without manually bind
mounting file names).
For example:
$ docker run --rm arm32v7/debian true
standard_init_linux.go:207: exec user process caused "no such file or directory"
After this change, any container can make use of the QEMU binfmt_misc
registrations, as their corresponding QEMU static binaries are fully
pre-loaded by the kernel.
* gnu/services/virtualization.scm (<qemu-platform>): Define using
'define-record-type*'.
[flags]: New field, which defaults to "F" (fix binary).

2020-10-19 | maint: update-guix-package: Prevent accidentally breaking guix pull....Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/43893>.
This changes the 'update-guix-package' tool so that it:
1. Always uses a clean checkout to compute the hash of the updated 'guix'
package.
2. Ensures the commit used in the updated 'guix' package definition has already
been pushed upstream.

variable.
(with-input-pipe-to-string, with-temporary-git-worktree): New syntaxes.

(commit-already-pushed?): New predicate.

hash from a clean checkout.
