Aside the potential bug on SWH side, maybe we could ask a flat cooking
instead of a git-bare cooking.

Considering the size of the Guix repository, it can take hours to cook
it – remember the test with CRLF ;-) – when most of the time, we need
only one specific revision.

Somehow, we could tweak ’clone-from-swh’ from (guix git) to use 'flat
instead of 'git-bare.  However, I am unsure the other tweaks it would
require since a Git repository is somehow expected.


Cheers,
simon
