Currently there is no metadata about a compose in the rsync share. This
makes it very difficult to know what is available to rsync/import.
rsync rsync://dl.fedoraproject.org/fedora-linux-development/rawhide/

In the past we used to have a .composeinfo file which not only told us
which trees were available in a compose but whether the compose completed
successfully.
Both of these attributes are important to keep testing. We don't want to
overwrite a working release with a broken one.
It appears that the .composeinfo file format is going away and being
replaced with metadata/composeinfo.json which is fine. We can update our
code to work with this but according to dgilmore its not as easy as simply
copying this file over since the compose gets carved up.
It sounds like the process that does the carving should produce a new
composeinfo.json which describes the carved up version.
Until this ticket is resolved we will not be able to mirror Fedora inside
Red Hat for testing.
