DVM as daily driver?

I'll test if I can configure bind-dirs to persist the directory that contains my Git repos, so I can migrate my qubes to DVMs.

This idea is relevant to me because after migrating to Guix, I lost the ability to configure AppVM packages from TemplateVM, as I set bind-dirs to persist /var/guix and /gnu/store.

With this setup, I hope to have:

TemplateVM
Managing Guix and Nix binaries and base store.
AppVM
Setupping a minimal usable workspace.
DVM
Containing my repos and relevant data.

Instead keeping dotfiles in ~/.local/share/chezmoi/, I can put it in the repo dir and symlink it instead.

But I'll need to apply chezmoi on every boot… Hum, seems not the optimal situation.

I'll probably get more insights and a better opinion after trying this idea.
