Yeah, to try and keep the Guix Data Service database from growing
indefinitely, the branches for patches are automatically deleted when
the Debbugs issue is closed, and then there's some code to remove the
relevant data from the Guix Data Service. The last bit still needs some
more work to happen automatically, and I realised yesterday that I may
need to also automate cancelling builds to coincide with the derivations
being removed from the Guix Data Service (otherwise when the build comes
around, the agents can't fetch the derivation, also it's probably good
not to waste time on these builds).
