I'm pretty sure this can be closed. As of 63c799c1 the instructions were
changed to use `guix git authenticate` so the additional advice is no
longer relevant.

Indeed.

Since you submitted the patch, feel free to close it. :-) To do so, you
simply answer to 40276-done@debbugs.gnu.org with the explanation why the
report is closed (as you did).


Thanks,
