With EL-7.3 out the door and CentOS packages getting into various repositories, we are finding that there are some conflicts and other problems. The primary one we have seen is with the python-cffi package. RHEL pulled in an older version than what is in EPEL-7 so we will need to pull out the old package and rebuild all the packages that require it (python-cgit looks like one of them). Kevin Fenzi will have more on this later.
Another problem is in the google-noto-fonts https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1396260 This is causing the RHEL supplied packages to be removed. The packager will be removing the obsoletes in the spec file to fix that.
I believe there are a couple other ones and they will be fixed as they are found.

I retired python-cffi in epel... however there's likely some packages that will need rebuilding against the new rhel one now.
python-pygit at least: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1400668
