> Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/45895>.
>
> When the ~/.cache/guix/authentication is empty, this change allows
> authentication to start at the current commit, as shown by 'guix
> describe', instead of starting from the introductory commit, which would
> take more and more time (there's currently 18K commits per year).
>
> * guix/git-authenticate.scm (authenticate-repository): Add #:authentic-commits.
> [authenticated-commits]: Append it.
> * guix/channels.scm (authenticate-channel)[authentic-commits]: New
> variable.  Pass it to 'authenticate-repository'.
