#
# The purpose is the following. We build (many) NetworkManager packages in copr. The
# build process runs a script (contrib/scripts/nm-copr-build.sh) that fetches the git
# repository (and we cannot just do a shallow copy -- only for the stupid reason
# that the automatic version number counts all the commits in the HEAD's history).
# NetworkManager's git repository is relatively large so fetching it over and over
# is wasteful. The idea is to have a recent git-bundle of the repository, which is
# hosted close-by in the copr infrastructure. So the build script first tries to
# download the bundle to get the bulk of the git history, before doing additional
# fetches from the upstream repository.
# From time to time, a new bundle has to be generated in copr.
