I think this is the clue I needed. I also have such a pile, and
although it is not complete (wouldn't even need to know repo then, I'd
have all the rpms already), it should be sufficient to
reverse-engineer a map from vendors to repos. I'd forgotten that
directory was organized by source repo.

Side problem - I just have too many repos, I am probably asking for
trouble. At least I am running the priorities addon, which may save me
most of the time.
