+ (body
+ (en "The @command{guix pull} and @command{guix time-machine} can now
+be optionally passed @option{--select} (@option{-e}) or
+@option{--exclude} (@option{-x}) to control which channels should be updated.
+
+For instance, the command below updates the @code{guix-science} and
+@code{guix-past} channels while keeping Guix at the current commit:
+
+@example
+guix pull -e guix-science -e guix-past
+@end example
+
+To update all but the @code{guix} channel, one could do as follows:
+
+@example
+guix pull -x guix
+@end example
+
+See @samp{info \"(guix)Invoking guix pull\"} for more information.")))
