I re-read the Wiki including the Factory2 link and I'm still confused. I like the idea at a high level but I still don't understand how to use it.One example is that I maintain the package OpenImageIO which has a very disciplined upstream that's careful about not making API/ABI breaking changes within a minor release. I would like to get branches for each minor release that's currently supported, 1.8 for rawhide through F28, 1.8 for F27 and 1.5 for EPEL.Like I said, at a high level it makes since, but I still don't understand exactly how to do it or if the process/tools are mature enough to actually use yet.
The original idea was to use it for modules [1]. You would reference the branches in your module definition [2].
