Hi Ludo',

this is not exactly true. It might be used, by the forward update check
on guix system reconfigure.
When the user hasn't pulled yet, they don't have any checkout, and a new
one is being created by looking at the folder
/home/ludo/src/guix/version/... That will end up with an error.

Maybe the installation-os should not use (current-guix) as that can lead
to issues like this? Could we instead just detect the commit and change
the url to the savannah/codeberg one?
Or will it just be ensured next time that the channels used to build it
point to the hosting url and not at a local one?

Regards
Rutherther
