Just jumping in to this thread, I've helped two people in IRC run 'guix pull' with a working git tarball I found. Perhaps some code should be added to pull the latest build that's been built on Hydra? In the end it'd still be great to have rollbacks, the ability to specify a git commit, ping Hydra to see which commits have substitutes that I could upgrade to, and allow rolling back as if it's a package in my profile. It sounds like a lot, but I figure at least one of those ideas would ease things for people. Jookia.
