Perhaps and stupid question:

After upload new-sources to repo, it outputs:
Uploaded and added to .gitignore:
Source upload succeeded. Don't forget to commit the sources file

I don't understand! By default it add sources files to .gitignore and
then it asks for commit them?

Is it something that I misunderstood?

It just tells you not to forget to commit the file named 'sources'. The file
changes when you execute new-sources and should be commited, because it
contains an md5sum of the source tarball.

The message is somewhat misleading, because the 'sources' file gets staged
automatically after new-sources, so if you do fedpkg commit, it gets commited
anyway.
The upload puts the new sources in the lookaside cache, which is
outside of git,
Long time want ask - why? Why sources not under git too? Is there any troubles with big blobs? Can I point on such files from web? How? Especially I need it to point on my patches to provide it upstream.
  and updates the sources file, but doesn't commit it to
git, because the assumption is that your have other changes to make,
like updating the spec, new patches perhaps, etc.

Hope this explanation is not even more confusing:)
