I think it would be worth it having such functionality in guilt. I know I've been bad about forcing even myself to write new regression tests. Your patches modify things significantly enough, that I'd like to see some regression tests cases to make sure that user's data is not eaten (e.g., a bug in the guard setting code could blow away the series file => very bad). > This introduces the command `get_guarded_series`, which just lists > patches that are to be applied based on the guards.

Perhaps printing a warning if a new guard is set when there are applied patches would be in order? > This is an RFC, but I have tested it and things seem to be working > well. Great! I'm going to reply to each of the patches separately with any comments.
