Why this is not enough for your use case? As mentioned in [1].

The closing message says:
Yes, this does work. Combined with the fact that it is now
possible to "guix pull" channels over SSH, there is no need for
this patch any more. The "git-checkout" gexp-compiler basically
does the same thing that I was trying to do (it is still
"impure" in that the fetching happens outside the store), but it
does it more elegantly.

…maybe the location is “git-checkout” gexp-compiler and see what is
missing for covering your use-case.
