Thanks for advice guys, setting commitish to back rawhide in copr.
Sorry for the bad advice to other maintainers. Please use pull-requests against rawhide as Miro mentioned.
Ondrej.

Testing is possible by pushing the changes to a new created branch "rawhide-autoconf-2.71", where in your package you can use autoconf dependency (autoconf-2.71) or autoconf2.69 dependency (compat package for autoconf-2.69). After pushing to the given branch, the package will be built automatically in copr and you can test the update of your package. You can do this many times until you are certain your package works good.

I concur.
Set the committish of the packages in your copr to "rawhide". Packagers can send
pull requests with changes and the results will appear in your Copr e.g. in:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/odubaj/autoconf-2.70/builds/?dirname=autoconf-2.70:pr:18
Pull requests, unlike arbitrary branches, can be safely rebased until the result
is good. Once merged, they are "gone" (technically, they remain in your fork,
but that should not bother anybody and can be deleted if needed).
