`guix refresh` is not great for core packages: it only detects things
that depend on other packages through inputs. Here though, git is used
indirectly by git-fetch origins, and would affect the dependency graph a
lot more.  I think this should be grafted to avoid too many rebuilds,
and ungrafted on core-updates (maybe now, maybe after the big
core-updates merge).

Best,
