The Guix project has announced
that it is migrating all of its Git repositories, as well as bug
tracking and patch tracking, from Savannah to the Codeberg Git forge.

As a user, the main change is that your channels.scm
configuration files, if they refer to the
git.savannah.gnu.org URL, should be changed to refer to
https://codeberg.org/guix/guix.git once migration is
complete. But don't worry: guix’pull will tell you
if/when you need to update your config files and the old URL will
remain a mirror for at least a year anyway.

The motivation for the move, which is spelled out in a Guix
Consensus Document (GCD), is to improve the contribution
experience and improve quality assurance efforts. Migration of Git
repositories should be completed by June’7, though they will
continue to be mirrored on Savannah until "at least" May’2026. LWN covered Guix in February’2024.
