Wait a minute... you're saying this is something that needs to be
configured on each committer's machine(s)?

Shouldn't it be on the server-side recieve hooks instead, otherwise
someone might accidentally (or intentially) push commits not
appropriately signed to the repository or validated by this check...

Or is this an optional check for recommended for committers? Have I been
missing something all along that I was supposed to be doing?

For my own workflow, I usually do not (yet) sign or push commits from a
machine with guix installed... it's a bit awkward, admittedly, but I
don't yet have any SSH or OpenPGP keys I trust guix with directly
(ironically, "make authenticate" is working towards addressing exactly
that trust issue).
