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!
Cheers,
Konrad
