Adding items here:

 - SVN support.  Chunks are there [1] but missing glue.
 - other (Hg, CVS, etc.)
 - coverage (by the Data Service?)

 - guix time -C channels.scm -- help
   where channels.scm describes missing Git repo, fallback to SWH.

   (Corollary, “guix channel” subcommand helping to add, remove, save,
   etc.)

About reviewing, feedback welcome. :-) From my understanding, some
commits should be rewritten (split or merged).

In the same direction, I add 2 items:

 - guix time-machine --commit=<OID> / guix pull --commit=<OID>
 - guix git tag: for locally tagging a specific commit

On the next-next step, be able to download information (JSON?) from the
Data Service and use it to easy the “navigation” in the history.

Add another item:

 - Julia importer (I am working on it, slowly! :-))
