Hello! Now that our build farm is running smoothly, I propose we revive the practice of feature branches, when appropriate.
The first one that I propose is a go-updates branch, where we update the Go compilers. This will affect ~500 packages. If I understand correctly, Go is a relatively self-contained reverse dependency graph within Guix and thus a good candidate for this approach. It contains the Go libaries, and then some end-user applications, and they don't really affect other packages. So, it should be easy to understand when the update is ready to push. I can set up a jobset on ci.guix.gnu.org if people like the idea. Leo
