https://ci.guix.gnu.org/log/brvizic3qv469j8fd2xgsgx9p8s5s1j7-google-brotli-1.0.7-checkout

environment variable `PATH' set to

Initialized empty Git repository in

From https://github.com/google/brotli
 * tag               v1.0.7     -> FETCH_HEAD
Note: checking out 'FETCH_HEAD'.

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in
this state without impacting any branches by performing another
checkout.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again.
Example:

  git checkout -b <new-branch-name>

HEAD is now at d6d9895 Ramp up version to 1.0.7

It occured during doing something for Jami, don't remember exactly what
now.
I probably ran "./pre-inst-env guix build jami" in my private git repo,
but I did nothing with google-brotli.
