Erm, how do you generate the tags? Can you drop the build system relation? You are not making sense at the moment. If your plan is eventually to push those build git tags back to pagure so that people get some kind of temporary reproducibility (i.e. it will work only when no build is running), then that's a duplication of data, i.e. it is still not "dist-git is a single source of truth". You are duplicating what's in koji into dist-git needlessly. And it is _still_dependant on build system. Can you, please, read what I am writing and really think about it? With rpmautospec you are breaking so many software-design and programming common-sense rules that it is hard to even count. Why can't we join forces on a solution that makes sense and that will actually work? clime > > > Pierre > _______________________________________________ > devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ > List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
