#10162 Are repos in the container namespace also branched from rawhide?
Closed: Can't Fix 3 years ago by humaton. Opened 4 years ago by ankursinha.

  • Describe the issue
    For the compneuro container, I noticed that a Fedora 34 branch had not been created automatically at the release branch point (I used fedpkg request-repo to request a F34 branch now). Should container repos also be branched like the packages are? If yes, could someone please check to see if this is happening as it should? I checked a few other container repos and they haven't been branched for F34 either (https://src.fedoraproject.org/container/cockpit/branches for example)

We dont branch container namespace as we initially thought we will let maintainers decide whether they want the repo to be branched or not.

We will discuss this more in out next releng meeting on next Tue June 15th at 15 UTC.

On the weekly releng meeting, we decided to gather more feedback on the devel list.

Hi @ankursinha, there was not much interest on the devel list in branching containers with every release. We will continue NOT to branch container namespace during mass branching. Please request branches for individual containers if necessary.

Ah, no worries. I'm sorry, I didn't even notice that this was discussed on the -devel list.

I'll just ask the container SIG to document this so folks know that they have to request branches themselves.
