@sharlatan@mastodon.social To follow up, the sops-guix channel is still required to decrypt secrets at runtime.I am not seeing the sops system and home service types from sops-guix in guix proper. I am a total noob. Else I would consider volunteering to add them. Anyway, I think it would be great to have this functionality natively in guix. @fishinthecalculator (and company) did a spectacular job!

@sharlatan@mastodon.social Yes. The channel. I believe it would be the sops services and sops-secret type.

@sharlatan@mastodon.social Is the plan to eventually migrate the rest of sops-guix over as well?

#guix

There is plenty of documentation and commentary on how to set channels for Guix System and Home, but I have been unable to answer one particular question after months of toying with Guix.

**At a high level, what is the correct way to pin channel commits to your config for maximum reproducibility?**

I am aware of guix Time Machine. Do you all simply pass the channels.scm to Time Machine on reconfigure? Is this *the Guix way*?
