And explain what it's about.

OK, now I do a well... but should users need to understand the developers' git workflow? Ultimately, the issue here is that guix works on the implementation level of git commit references, whereas the development process uses an abstraction layer on top of it. Maybe "guix pull" and "guix time-machine" should acquire some built-in intelligence when given a tag instead of a hash? Issue a warning when an inappropriate tag is given, and suggest a correction?
