I am not sure if it could be done, but I am rather sure that I wouldn't want that. Case study: I want to install one package from a specific Guix commit in the past: - guix pull -C ... creates a new generation - guix package install ... creates another new generation Now I cannot undo the "guix pull" without also removing the package that I installed from that specific commit!
