If I wanted to send pull request to e.g. rawhide, it is quite convenient to do the work in topic branch. Unfortunately, once I branch off the topic branch, fedpkg is loosing the rawhide context, which has to be provided by --release option. Therefore it would be nice if fedpkg provided some convention to remedy this.
rawhide
--release
E.g. there is already private- prefix used in RHEL context, so if I created private-rawhide branch, fedpkg could be smart enough to understand that the private- is known prefix and rawhide is know branch name in the dist-git context.
private-
private-rawhide
Or if there was convention, such as. rawhide-my-topic-branch-name where rawhide is the reserved branch name followed by some suffix, that would tremedously help with topic branches without always specifying --release
rawhide-my-topic-branch-name
Last idea comming to my mind is to try to determine the source branch of the topic branch, but that might be ambiguous.
