Hi! I pushed that update independently as c2e83b71054f953953711e027f863d6c75c6ddb2.

I agree this is desirable. I didn’t do that because I thought it might be a case where we need Guile-Git for ‘git-fetch’, but I think I was wrong (I was confusing with Guile-Zlib, which we cannot obtain via ‘git-fetch’ because ‘git-fetch’ uses it.) So after all, maybe we can use ‘git-fetch’? Ludo’.
