[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hey everyone,
I've recently tried to declaratively apply my own patches to the upstream guix channel or channels in general but I found it very hard (aka impossible) to do that cleanly so I made this simple patch.

This patch adds a new "transformer" field to the channel record. That "transformer" is a lambda that is called right before applying the quirk patches with the checkout path being its only argument.

What do you think about my proposal?
