I do not 'deploy' my systems. After reading the linked discussion and combining it with what I know; I think the best approach would be to dig into wherever guix pull caches the channel modules and link the newest revision of the system-configuration.scm to a predictable file; which could then be combined with with the reconfigure command for a quick update alias. :/ On the upside, this is my opportunity to learn more about Guix. While writing this response I digged around in $GUILE_LOAD_PATH and found a bunch of modules. Sadly, none of those are mine, but maybe they are only exposed to the guix build users?
