So, when I update my local keyring branch with new merges, guix git
authenticate issues a non-fatal error:

  $ git checkout keyring
  Switched to branch 'keyring'
  $ git reset --hard 21173006e4165d8990b75ca46c78d83448d2e45a
  HEAD is now at 21173006e4 Add key for Greg Hogan.
  $ git merge --ff-only origin/keyring
  Updating 21173006e4..0869e2220d

Which is a bit alarming!


.git/config contains:

  [guix "authentication"]
        introduction-commit = 5010a51fc91aeac5a3b87a3eea04f18f3fe8a3a3
        introduction-signer = 1A858392E331EAFDB8C27FFBF3C1A0D9C1D65273
        keyring = keyring


Looks like something also created .git/hooks/post-merge:

  #!/bin/sh
  # Authenticate the repo upon 'git pull' and similar.
  exec guix git authenticate

On the one hand, I get why it magically appeared probably when I
initially ran "guix git authenticate", but on the other, it is
surprising behavior as I do not recall asking for it. :)


live well,
  vagrant

Well, although it does not fix the unexpected behaviour you report, here
is a proposal to avoid this manual dance:

    https://codeberg.org/guix/guix/pulls/440#issuecomment-5020854

In other words, if .git/config would contain:

    [guix "authentication"]
          introduction-commit = 5010a51fc91aeac5a3b87a3eea04f18f3fe8a3a3
          introduction-signer = 1A858392E331EAFDB8C27FFBF3C1A0D9C1D65273
          keyring = origin/keyring


Cheers,
simon
