We all know or should know that this is false. It's easy enough to
disprove with a counterexample:

https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2023:1918

Try to find the code for that webkit2gtk3-2.36.7-1.el9_1.3.src.rpm in
CentOS Stream. It isn't there, and never will be.


The *exact* set of source code that the package was built for is
included in the Source RPM and all of the individual changes that
comprised it are part of the c9s branch in CentOS Stream (or the
maintainer has been regressing code, in which case that should be
addressed). No, the git repo might not contain a specific git
reference that directly matches the SRPM you cite, but that's not at
all the same thing as "the code isn't available in git".


Not sure if its intentional or not but the misunderstanding
in the communication is ridiculous. Some one argues that the code
is available and forget to explain what code is mentioned. If a bumped
version of a package fixes an issue (stream variant of CentOS) e.g 2.2,
and a released package (rhel variant) has a backported fix for e.g. 2.1,
that doesn't mean that the code is also in the stream git just because
both code fragments fixes the same issue. The backported code can be
very different, and its not in the git branch of the stream variant.
So, that code is not available in git, and to cite Michael "and never
will be."
