+Build @var{package} from the latest commit of @var{branch}. The @code{source}
+field of @var{package} must be an origin with the @code{git-fetch} method
+(@pxref{origin Reference}) or a @code{git-checkout} object; the repository URL
+is taken from that @code{source}.
+
+For instance, the following command builds @code{guile-sqlite3} from the
+latest commit of its @code{master} branch, and then builds @code{guix} (which
+depends on it) and @code{cuirass} (which depends on @code{guix}) against this
+specific @code{guile-sqlite3} build:
+
+@example
+guix build --with-branch=guile-sqlite3=master cuirass
+@end example

+@cindex continuous integration
+Obviously, since it uses the latest commit of the given branch, the result of
+such a command varies over time. Nevertheless it is a convenient way to
+rebuild entire software stacks against the latest commit of one or more
+packages. This is particularly useful in the context of continuous
+integration (CI).
+
+Checkouts are kept in a cache under @file{~/.cache/guix/checkouts} to speed up
+consecutive accesses to the same repository. You may want to clean it up once
+in a while to save disk space.
