We should investigate if and how the %forgemeta macros are compatibe with our implementation of source-git:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/SourceURL/#_branch_example
I recall we already touched this topic but never made it actionable, this is why I'm creating this issue.
Suggested here: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/T2ONMPIEDXU4YFY7KUUKTYACZGKO7KYI/
quick example to consider
(1) a COPR git-source<-commit spec build, from @pagure gitlab-mirrored source (https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/pgfed/spamassassin-milter/fedora-34-x86_64/02302308-spamassassin-milter/spamassassin-milter.spec)
%define _spamassassin_milter_version HEAD %global forgeurl0 https://pagure.io/pgnd/spamassassin-milter-UPSTREAM-MIRROR %define _ctag0 %{_spamassassin_milter_version} %global commit0 %( git ls-remote %{forgeurl0} | grep %{_ctag0} | cut -f1 )
works.
(2) so does a COPR git-source<-branch spec build, 'direct' from gitlab (https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/pgfed/spamassassin-milter/fedora-34-x86_64/02302309-spamassassin-milter-TEST/spamassassin-milter-TEST.spec)
%define _spamassassin_milter_branch master %define _spamassassin_milter_shortbranch HEAD %global forgeurl https://gitlab.com/glts/spamassassin-milter %global branch %{_spamassassin_milter_branch}
(3) but a similar COPR git-source<-branch spec build, from the same @pagure gitlab-mirrored source as above, changing only
%define _spamassassin_milter_branch master %define _spamassassin_milter_shortbranch HEAD - %global forgeurl https://gitlab.com/glts/spamassassin-milter + %global forgeurl https://pagure.io/pgnd/spamassassin-milter-UPSTREAM-MIRROR %global branch %{_spamassassin_milter_branch}
FAILs (https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/pgfed/spamassassin-milter/srpm-builds/02302315/builder-live.log.gz)

(1), (2) & (3) should all work
as should any/all forgemeta methods , with all 'supported' scm hosts -- esp github, gitlab & pagure
