The example here is about downloading github.com-generated tarballs,
which we don’t do in Guix for other reasons.

The kind of tarballs that Guix packages refer to are not autogenerated;
they contain more than what the VCS has.  Thus, they’re also more
difficult to authenticate if they’re not signed.

Thanks for sharing!
