Well my use case is browsing commits and settling on one with good
"weather".

Its not that important to me actually because close to master (a few
days back there are often >93% substitutes availiable.

We could definitely improve the "running from git" section with some
kind of best-practice.

e.g. keep close to master
run clean-go if you get weird guile errors during make (especially after
merging of core-updates)
etc.

Would that be accepted?
