Yup, exactly! In packit we're doing it the hard way since we force
them to embrace spec files and RPM packaging format. I wouldn't be
personally too opposed to an idea where upstream projects could start
w/o RPM packaging and just run their tests on Fedora and then, slowly,
ramp up to have an RPM package out of their project up to automate
release into rawhide.

We actually had a discussion in December before the break, whether we
would enable a workflow in packit that you would not need spec and
would be able to test your software directly from the git repo - the
same thing as travis or circle does. As far as I recall, the idea is
still on the table.
