If it's for Copr only, please use a fork. It wasn't intended to use COPR originally, it's just that Fedora releng ignored my request for close to a year. I filed <https://pagure.io/releng/issue/11102> for the branch removals. I must say this is quite confusing. Why offer self-service branch creation at all if we aren't supposed to use it in general? What's the recommended way to collaborate with packages/provenpackagers? Someone's personal fork on src.fedoraproject.org with a branch with a wide-open ACL?
