This origin record can be simplified a bit by using inheritance:

(origin
  (inherit (package-source shepherd))
  (method git-fetch)
  (uri (git-reference [...]))
  (sha256 [...]))

'inherit' is not restricted to packages, it can be used for any record
type defined with (guix records)!

Greetings,
Maxime.
