Dist Git for Copr

[Adam Samalik]

But the second variant - to store "packages" - would mean that I have a git repo for each package. For example Developer Toolset would need about 70 git projets because it's got about 70 packages:
https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/rhscl/devtoolset-3-el7/monitor/

That's fine for dist git, but not as a project. 

Ideal could be some kind of hybrid where we can have one project. This project could host the upstream sources (pagure) or just have link to github, etc. Whatever we decide here. We can even have both options to be more friendly :)
And this project would also include the packages. I can think about two variants here:
 a) include the packages in dist git or something like that
 b) have some easy description for Copr how to build it.

The example description for b) could look like this:
 1) have this project: https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/copr.git
 2) build from these directories: backend, selinux, cli, frontend, keygen
 3) get the sources by: tito build --srpm

Pagure could also be great for the second.

It offers git hosting, the way dist-git needs it (to store specs and
patches), and it (could if it doesn't already) offers some space storage
to upload tarballs.

Then, maintainers of packages in coprs would gain a place for users to
report their issues with the copr packages, which doesn't sound like a
terrible thing.
