Re: `make check` fails when trying to build from Git

Hi Ashvith,

(Cc: guix-devel.)

Thanks for the logs!  They show two test failures:

This one happens when *not* running in a UTF-8-capable locale.  We
should arrange so that the test is skipped in that case.

This one seems to have to do with your own ~/.gitconfig.  We should
arrange so that Git doesn’t read ~/.gitconfig for these tests.

Thanks,
