[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Apologies if this has been asked before, but would it be possible to
include one of curl or wget in the installation image?

It's particularly convenient to fetch authorization keys, channel specs and
the like before installing a system.

Additionally, including git (maybe git minimal?) would be great so
synchronize Git repositories which may contain installation scripts,
Guix configs and other dotfiles.

Thoughts?
