I can't do that in the current setup, only Red Hat RCM can. I can push text into git, but not binary files to shadow cache. The only package impacted is centos-release, because it is the only package that we actually change the tarball and where I would need to push to shadow cache. If I push the spec changes, but not the shadow cache changes, it renders centos-release not buildable. We are working on an update whereby I will be able to push the changes to git.centos.org .. when we get that in place, I will maintain centos-release there like all the other packages. In the mean time, we have a 'unified centos-release' here in git (for all c7 arches): https://github.com/CentOS/sig-core-AltArch/tree/master/centos-release You will still need to download the SRPM to get the tarball.
