Re: How to use guix hash --serializer?

[Mortimer Cladwell]

Thanks Tim, Simon, but that does not work for me.

====nar==============
mbc@HP8300:~/projects$ guix hash -S nar -x ./shinyln
1ykbpz6pqx0bkvfp3c60qfb9r0xvpmrs0ldlxm2qw0zd8f67lmaj
mbc@HP8300:~/projects$ cd shinyln/
mbc@HP8300:~/projects/shinyln$ guix hash -S nar -x .
1ykbpz6pqx0bkvfp3c60qfb9r0xvpmrs0ldlxm2qw0zd8f67lmaj

====git==================
mbc@HP8300:~/projects/shinyln$ guix hash -S git -x .
0lai57r0p11q041b3flriv56j6n8lizwb69yv7j396yiivkspv3x
mbc@HP8300:~/projects/shinyln$ cd ..
mbc@HP8300:~/projects$ guix hash -S git -x ./shinyln

====error during packaging=============
building /gnu/store/2a2016wffiy0cwvayvsz64r1f88k05mg-git-checkout.drv...
\r:sha256 hash mismatch for
/gnu/store/w2sl6n4jnbhzs8qp1k4lff35h1yml2c4-git-checkout:
  expected hash: 1ykbpz6pqx0bkvfp3c60qfb9r0xvpmrs0ldlxm2qw0zd8f67lmaj
  actual hash:   10nfjllq28jrzxd4dfqm6xzx8f2g1m6p2vivzihxc7d3ac1imnk2

So seems like it doesn't matter whether I am inside or outside the
directory I get the same hash (reasonable).
Neither git nor nar provide the correct hash

FYI from https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Invoking-guix-hash.html
at the bottom explaining --exclude-vcs:

$ git clone http://example.org/foo.git
$ cd foo
$ guix hash -rx .

Suggests (to me) that you go inside the directory to calculate hash,
though as above seems not to matter.

Thanks
