Hi Guix,

  Out of curiosity, I had a closer look to trealla, a frequent inhabitant
  of Guix log: 344 commits during last 2 years, roughly speaking, a
  constant pace of a new commit every two days.

  I then had a look at the repository itself, roughly a new tag every 5
  commits; most of them are called "WIP", including tagged commits,
  authored by 4 different "Andrew Davidson".

  Not that I have nothing against, but I’m rather surprised: we’re close
  to delivering  every single change in a repository, which goes against
  the spirit of packaging stable releases.

  Sure, as a user of trealla, having an immediate access to every single
  line change is great, but Guix is ~ 30k packages, and so my question,
  is that on purpose and really needed by anyone ? What would happen if
  this way of proceeding spreads ? To think about.

Best,

--
