The magit package itself will be loaded correctly, because its emacs
package requirements are satisfied and even some functions will work,
for example magit-dispatch will show a transient interface. Other
functions that rely on git binary will throw an error and there are two
solutions for that: make a git a propagated input or set
`magit-git-executable` to a path to the git binary inside store, which
will make magit work with git as a regular input.
notmuch in contrast to git provides not only notmuch binary, but also
notmuch.el. consult-notmuch requires only notmuch.el, which have to be
propagated and doesn't depend on notmuch binary, but because notmuch.el
is a part of notmuch package the binary will be propagated too. The
possible solution here is to split notmuch into two packages: notmuch and
emacs-notmuch, so we will be able to set `notmuch-command` variable for
notmuch.el and have notmuch as an input, but not installed in the profile.
