Hello,

The 'guix pull' command a --dry-run option, per "guix pull --help", but
it doesn't work:

$ guix pull --commit=1995920f687020720d22bf8656fdde5ea1908747 --dry-run

It seems I should have been a bit more patient. The full command read
as:

Toggle snippet (31 lines)

The following derivations would be built:

2.2 MB would be downloaded

So the derivations had to be computed before the build plan could be
printed (which makes sense in retrospect).

Apologies, closing!
