Nice work.

Does this mean there is no way to correlate security/bugfix updates
from Red Hat with the changes in git, and therefore no way to know how
far SL is diverging from RHEL over time?
Is the git tree entirely RHEL + released updates, or are unreleased
CentOS changes mixed in as well?
Presumably, anyone with a RHEL subscription (and the right tools)
could compare the git repository against the update SRPMs, at least to
tell you whether they are the same. Would that be a violation of the
subscription terms, I wonder?
Just curious.
