In addition to substitutes from ci.guix.gnu.org. There are more changes that
can be made in the future, but these changes seem like a good start.
* config-daemon.ac (guix_substitute_urls): Add https://bordeaux.guix.gnu.org.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (%default-substitute-urls): Add
http://bordeaux.guix.gnu.org.
* guix/store.scm (%default-substitute-urls): Add bordeaux.guix.gnu.org.
* doc/guix.texi: Adjust accordingly.
* doc/contributing.texi: Adjust accordingly.
The previous instructions were correct, but we got too many bug reports
with a root cause of "did not build Guix yet".
Other parts of the manual already instruct `make && make check`, so this
makes the treatment of building Guix more consistent, too.
* doc/contributing.texi (Building from Git): Instruct the user to run
`make` when building Guix.

* doc/contributing.texi (Commit Access): Add paragraph about removing
inactive committers.
Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/36117>.
Before this change, the 'binfmt_misc' entries registered for QEMU would not be
usable in container contexts outside of guix-daemon (without manually bind
mounting file names).
For example:
$ docker run --rm arm32v7/debian true
standard_init_linux.go:207: exec user process caused "no such file or directory"
After this change, any container can make use of the QEMU binfmt_misc
registrations, as their corresponding QEMU static binaries are fully
pre-loaded by the kernel.
* gnu/services/virtualization.scm (<qemu-platform>): Define using
'define-record-type*'.
[flags]: New field, which defaults to "F" (fix binary).

Following discussions in <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/43893>, keeping a copy
of the updated package source is desirable when generating a release.
* build-aux/update-guix-package.scm (version-controlled?): Remove variable.
(call-with-temporary-git-worktree): Renamed from
'with-temporary-git-worktree'. Update doc. Do not change directory
implicitly. Define as a procedure, not a syntax.
(keep-source-in-store): New procedure.
(main): Adjust to use with call-with-temporary-git-worktree. Add the sources
to the store when GUIX_ALLOW_ME_TO_USE_PRIVATE_COMMIT is set. Exit gracefully
when FIND-ORIGIN-REMOTE returns #f.
(%savannah-guix-git-repo-push-url-regexp): Adjust match for a potential colon
separator.
* Makefile.am (GUIX_ALLOW_ME_TO_USE_PRIVATE_COMMIT): Adjust.
* .dir-locals.el (scheme-mode): Remove entry for with-temporary-git-worktree.
* doc/contributing.texi (Updating the Guix Package): Update doc.
Co-authored-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
* Makefile.am (GUIX_GIT_KEYRING): New variable.
(authenticate): Use GUIX_GIT_KEYRING to select the keyring branch
reference.
* doc/contributing.texi (Building from Git): Add an example about the
use of GUIX_GIT_KEYRING.
* doc/guix.texi (G-Expressions): Use @lisp for 'let-system' example.
* doc/contributing.texi (Synopses and Descriptions): Use @lisp for
second example.
Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/43893>.
This changes the 'update-guix-package' tool so that it:
1. Always uses a clean checkout to compute the hash of the updated 'guix'
package.
2. Ensures the commit used in the updated 'guix' package definition has already
been pushed upstream.
* build-aux/update-guix-package.scm (%savannah-guix-git-repo-push-url): New
variable.
(with-input-pipe-to-string, with-temporary-git-worktree): New syntaxes.
(find-origin-remote, git-add-worktree): New procedures.
(commit-already-pushed?): New predicate.
(main): Check the commit used has already been pushed upstream and compute the
hash from a clean checkout.
* doc/contributing.texi (Updating the Guix Package): Document it.
* .dir-locals.el (scheme-mode): Fix indentation of with-temporary-git-worktree.
Suggested by Emmanuel Agullo.
* doc/contributing.texi (Running Guix Before It Is Installed): Move the
"./pre-inst-env guix-daemon" snippet at the bottom. Make it clear that
it's necessary only when hacking on guix-daemon or when guix-daemon is
not already running.
* doc/contributing.texi (Building from Git): Instruct the user to fetch
the 'keyring' branch. Fix a typo.
