We have a serious problem here: non-packages can't upload sources to
Fedora SCM.
These pull requests require maintainers to do it manually in a separate
commit that breaks %autorelease+%autochangelog.
That's not exactly true. Yes, non-packagers can't upload files to the lookaside cache, but they can update the 'sources' and '.gitignore' files in git.
The easiest way to do that is with 'fedpkg new-sources --offline' which then only does the local modifications that can be committed to git (and submitted as a PR), but doesn't upload the files to the lookaside cache servers.
