Subject: [bug#78432] [PATCH 1/2] channels: Speed up ‘channel-news-for-commit’.
Date: Wed, 14 May 2025 22:23:45 +0200

Partly fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/78194>.

This makes the wall-clock time of:

  guix pull --list-generations > /dev/null

shrink from 33s to 4s on a profile with 8 generations.

* guix/channels.scm (channel-news-for-commit): Rewrite in terms of
‘commit-descendant?’.
