Hey Guix,

“guix deploy” bugs; they keep coming! “guix deploy” doesn't make use of SSH channels[0], instead it close the SSH session each time after sending store
items. This may be unnoticeable by users using a password-less SSH key
(bad!) or an SSH agent (better!) but for the other it mean entering the
password ~5 times per host per deployment which get old very quick. In my
case I use a keycard that require me to physically interact with it for
each authentication request, it means multiple touch per deployment,
reducing it just one would be a great relief.
