Hi Jesse,

Excellent!

OK. Like I wrote at <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/42155#3>, I wouldn’t
mind simply calling this new option ‘--with-source’. What we’d lose by
doing so is the warning you get if you do
‘--with-source=does-not-exist=whatever’, saying the option had no
effect, but that’s about it. The new ‘--with-source’ behavior
(recursive) would be consistent with the other options, which, to me, is
more important.
WDYT?

Add “source” here. It’s always a good idea to not have the exact same
error message in several places. :-)
Could you:
1. adjust doc/guix.texi accordingly? That is, if we rename this new
option to ‘--with-source’, simply add a note stating that it’s
recursive.
2. add a test to tests/guix-build.sh? There are already --with-source
tests in other files. You can mimic them, essentially to make sure
the option has an effect.
3. optionally add an entry as a separate commit to
etc/news.scm. I can do that for you if you want.
Thanks!
Ludo’.
