For this to work any code references would have to be of the form: (use-modules (my-module foo) (package->code my-package) rather than direct access to scheme files in the repo clone using: (source :file "foo.scm" :definiton 'my-package) The advantage of using pacakge->code is that the documentation compilation is then decoupled from the repo clone and can be generated anywhere guix can be run (just like guix pull). The 2 disadvantages are 1) Files in the repo, but not part of the guix module system cannot be referenced, 2) The pretty-printing of packages generated using package->code does not perfectly reproduce the format in the repo clone - although they are functionally identical. For example inputs are referenced fully qualified in-situ - eg (@ (foo bar) baz), rather than just referencing baz in the inputs, and importing (foo bar) at the top of the module. Comments etc, are also lost too. If there was a nice way of referencing the uncompiled scheme files in the channel without needing the repo cloned that would be perfect IMHO. I don't think this is possible tho?
