Just a note on that subject, we're actively working on getting ride of this git
repo and move this back to dist-git as well :)

Hi Pierre,

That's good to hear, the current workflow is a bit involved.

Do you plan to store this data in a file in each dist-git branch, or in a file containing the whole information on a separate, non-buildable orphan (semantic overload here ...) git branch? I think the latter would have the benefit of not interfering with dist-git contents at all, while still being stored in the same repo.

As for the issue discussed in this thread, this sounds like a fairly easy change
to add to: https://pagure.io/fedscm-admin/.
Could someone open a ticket there? (Do not allow non-maintainer to request a
branch on a package)
The workflow becoming: if you want an epel branch created, talk to the current
maintainer, get them to give you commit on the package and then request the
branch via fedpkg.


Thanks,
Pierre
