The default action of `guix pull` is like a rolling release, but you can also use it to deploy any version or Git commit of Guix, using `guix pull --url=...`: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=8a9cffb202414b20081910115ba76402924bdcdd You still can't be sure that we will have binary substitutes for every package. I just wanted to point out this little-known feature of `guix pull`, which gives Guix users some more flexibility without requiring them to maintain a Guix development environment.
