Cool. We didn't have visibility into the git history of RHEL source
code before, so the visibility into the git history of CentOS as a the
"published open source and free software for Red Hat" is an
interesting change. But yes, I do understand your concern about
provenance.

Looking at it, my concern is that there's not a graceful way to get a
list of all the git repos for actual packages published, only a web
interface, and the distinction between CentOS packages and RHEL
published packages is unclear. That's quite distinct from a directory
full of SRPM's that can be listed and parsed from a canonical web
directory and yum repository.

I'm also afraid that the web interface at git.centos.org is making my
eyes bleed.....
