To be honest, I have not checked the Bioconductor documentation about
their Git repo structure. What I see is:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ git clone https://git.bioconductor.org/packages/CHETAH
$ cd CHETAH
$ git branch -av
* master 5d5f5df [origin/master] Pass serialized S4
instances thru updateObject()
remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master
remotes/origin/RELEASE_3_10 063de2d bump x.y.z version to even y prior to
creation of RELEASE_3_10 branch
remotes/origin/RELEASE_3_11 701ca7f bump x.y.z version to even y prior to
creation of RELEASE_3_11 branch
remotes/origin/RELEASE_3_12 cd3dd78 bump x.y.z version to even y prior to
creation of RELEASE_3_12 branch
remotes/origin/RELEASE_3_13 1eacdb8 bump x.y.z version to even y prior to
creation of RELEASE_3_13 branch
remotes/origin/RELEASE_3_14 03295c9 bump x.y.z version to even y prior to
creation of RELEASE_3_14 branch
remotes/origin/RELEASE_3_9 22b53f2 version bump

Do we follow ’master’? Is it a mirror of what Bioconductor names their
3.14 release?
My guess was that RELEASE_3_14 mirrors their 3.14 release.

Well, I have something that works. So I do not know if this circular
reference is still there.

I am not familiar with the updater (guix refresh -u). My plan is:
1. Add bioconductor-git-reference
2. Adapt the bioconductor importer.
3. Updater?
The question is: do we have to include the migration in the updater? Or
do we do the migration by custom scripts?
Note that, because we do not support shallow clones, the complete
sources will be a bit bigger; since they contain all the Bioconductor
history of all the packages.
Cheers,
simon
