(title (en "@command{guix pull} authenticates channels"))
(body
(en "The @command{guix pull} and @command{guix time-machine} commands
now authenticate the source code that they pull, unless the new
@option{--disable-authentication} option is passed. What this means is that
Guix ensures that each commit received is cryptographically signed by an
authorized developer. This protects you from attempts to tamper with the Guix
repository and from attempts to ship malicious code to users.
This feature is currently limited to the @code{guix} channel but will soon be
available to third-party channel authors.")))
