The SL approach to this is *very good*. It's very clear, and easy to
review which components come straight from Red Hat and which are
modified in house. Unfortunately, the access to the original SRPM's no
longer exists for non clients as of RHEL 7, and the very peculiar
layout and "let's use something like tags, but deduced from the word
'import' in the git logs instead of using tags that can be GPG signed"

It's going to get weirder going forward.
