Just to rephrase it: RHEL SOURCES are at the mentioned git server
and before RHEL7 it where on there FTP servers.

After EOL of C8 the sources should be still be pushed into git.

Using other SRPMS (like out of a RH Account) should be against
RH's EULA. Remember, when your intention is to build a clone.

Rocky is consuming via git.centos.org and Alma should also using it.
BTW, its questionable where the sources for AL8.4beta is coming
from ...?

AFAIK: The future will show if this all will be moved to gitlab ...

Thats so far my understanding.
