I think it does work properly in Guix, but requires the user to log in
again after installing Git. That's because a lot of Guix stuff is set up
in the login shell initialization scripts. It might even be enough to do
`bash --login` after installing the package.
I guess that many of us install Git right away, so we don't notice a
problem.
