From my experience the guix commands given after `pre-inst-env` are

Can we make it such that the compiled code is always stored? It seems
silly to discard it.
Compiling the files on the fly would be very useful, because you often
only need a subset of the .scm files compiled. (And make also builds
the manual in all languages.)
1. Use git worktrees. Some contributors do, hopefully they will share
their workflow, I do not use them.
I use git worktrees for long lived branches, like python-team. It is
simply (from your guix git repository):
git worktree add ../guix-python-team python-team
cd ../guix-python-team
and then treat that worktree as a separate clone, following the other
workflows as usual.
One thing that I learned the hard way is that all worktrees share the
same .git/hooks directory, so if there is one of them that adds the
"Change-Id" hook, it will be added to all of them...
2. Use the `git-restore-mtime` command from the `git-tools` package.
Thanks, will try that.
