 I'd like to have a fully reproducible Emacs setup (part of the reason
 why I store my configuration in this repository) but unfortunately out
 of the box, that's not achievable with =package.el=, not currently

-experimented with [[https://github.com/raxod502/straight.el][straight.el]], but found that it added about 2 seconds

-** Installation

-To use this config for your Emacs, first you need to clone this repo,
-then bootstrap Borg, tell Borg to retrieve package submodules, and
-byte-compiled the packages. Something along these lines should work:
-
-#+begin_src sh :tangle no
-git clone https://github.com/aminb/dotfiles ~/.emacs.d
-cd ~/.emacs.d
-make bootstrap-borg
-make bootstrap
-make build
-#+end_src
+anyway.  So, I've opted to use =straight.el=.  I also used Borg for a
+few months, but decided to try =straight.el= which allows direct use
+of the various package archives.
