Hello, The guix manual (info guix or better viewed in emacs) has a "Contributing" section talk about how to do this. Basically: 1. git clone the guix repository. 2. run bootstrap, configure and make 3. modify the correct source file 4. test it with ./pre-inst-env guix 5. git commit and git format-patch 6. send the patch to guix-patches mailing list I think the checkout from "guix pull" can be used with "git worktree" with some care, but I usually use a seperated git clone for contributing. Hope this helps!
