#477 How to request module branch
Opened by humaton. Modified

Refiling ticket from releng tracker releng#9840

I want to create 7.4 branch for modules/php-extras and epel-8-php-7.4 for rpms/php-extras and a few others (igbinary, memcache, msgpack, redis, rpminfo...), exactly as these exist for "7.3"
So I simply try to follow the documentation which state
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/modularity/building-modules/fedora/adding-new-modules/
Which says
fedpkg request-branch --repo=NAME --sl rawhide:2020-12-01 -- BRANCH
fedpkg request-branch --repo=NAME --no-auto-module --sl rawhide:2020-12-01 -- BRANCH
And this have work in the past and is now broken.
So, the first issue is, obviously broken documentation
I dont understand the necessity for epel-8-php-7.4 branch you want?
Because I want a branch per distro and per stream
(sorry, but using the same branch for everything CAN'T work)

In the documentation
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/modularity/building-modules/fedora/adding-new-modules/
I can no longer see the part -- BRANCH
Was it changed recently?
BRANCH parameter is placed more to the left and it is working for me. There is no separate --

fedpkg request-branch --namespace modules --repo NAME BRANCH --sl SERVICE_LEVEL:YYYY-MM-DD
fedpkg request-branch --repo=NAME BRANCH --no-auto-module --sl SERVICE_LEVEL:YYYY-MM-DD
