I think you have to use the ‘local-file’ procedure in place of ‘origin’
in the ‘source’ field.
Unless I am not up-to-date with current Guix practices, it is still not
convenient since you still need to manually filter git related files and
build results with the ‘#:select’ keyword argument of ‘local-file’.
