Not sure what you're saying here.  Which repository?  If you install a

Packages from updates-testing end up in the regular updates repository
eventually.

I want to lock a specific package to use the updates-testing repository. Not only for one release, but all coming releases for that package. I believe your first post did that, with some caveats(manually need to allow other packages to be installed using a configuration file)

Well, it will also update that package from any other repo if possible, but that's the only package it will update from updates-testing.

man dnf.conf

Using man dnf or man 8 dnf I couldn't find what I was looking for, regarding includepkgs, but I'm thankful for your initial answer that probably solves it.

That's not the right one.  I pointed to the "dnf.conf" man page.

p.s. basic understanding. My thoughts was that if I install package from updates-testing, I should always get package updates for that package through update-testing, but if I install an "advisory" thorugh update-testting, It's only that single advisory update and it should not break the normal stable upgrading of that package.

What's an "advisory update"? dnf will get updates from any available repository regardless of which repository a package was initially installed from.
