2. has been fixed (also by Ludovic, ah!).  I'm not sure a good solution
can be found for 1. but it seems reasonable to me that contributors
working on Guix learn to sign their commits with GnuPG; that way they
are on the right path to become a Guix committer, already getting up to
speed with the required practices.

Closing, but we can continue discussing it.
