Dist Git for Copr

[Adam Samalik]

Do we want to store the project, or packages?

To explain what I mean by "project" and "packages", let's have a look at the Copr project.

The "project" is hosted here: https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/copr.git
This is the home of the project. It stores the source code and could also have some issue tracker etc.
If we want to store "project", Pagure seems like a nice solution.

The "packages" (for fedora) are here: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/copr
This hosts the packages and is more focused on the spec file and the packaging side. The project needs to live somewhere else.
If we want to store "packages", Dist Git might be great.

What we want to have? Or do we want to have some hybrid of those two above?

Nope, short term is that user select SRPM and do "file upload" from form -- or provide url.
And the result will be stored in dist-git.
So they do not need to host src.rpm on some public site.

I really dislike to store project in pagure. Unless it have git-annex or similar and we store there just spec and
SOURCEX as in dist-git.
We could not force users to move their github project to pagure.

Why it should cause trouble.
The goal is to have literally copy of fedora-dist. Just have it on different HW/Storage.
Then every change would be just carbon copy.
