You can resubmit a build with the same N-V-R until it works. ie, submit 3.3.3-1, it fails, you tweak some things, commit, don't change the n-v-r and resubmit it works. Which git hash has the 3.3.3-1 tag? It should be the one that finished, but if you tagged when you first submitted that N-V-R it would be wrong. > A build submitted and canceled does run into trouble though.
