How does mock, koji shadow etc all fit in? Nitpick: this probably belongs on another mailing-list (packaging ?) A package is built by a packager, preferably in a chroot built by mock. Once this is built and tested, the spec, patchs and source are commited in git and tagged,the package is built once again in koji, it is then submitted as an update to a stable branch or added to rawhide, depending which target was specified. For a stable branch, the package is put in the updates-testing repo. Users have the ability to grade and comment an update. Once a sufficient delay has passed, the update is pushed in the updates repo.
