What's the reason for this patch?  My guess is that it's because 
git-annex cannot find git:

$ guix shell --pure git-annex -- git-annex test
git-annex: git: createProcess: posix_spawnp: does not exist (No such 
file or directory)

If so, propagation (which as a few small downsides) can be avoided with 
an appropriate substitute* fixing the file name of the git binary.

Greetings,
Maxime
