Hi Team,
I was looking for git-annex on EPEL 8 and it looks like the package is not present, even though I can see the package on EL7/F34/F35, is there any reason for git-annex to not be present for EL8?
I'm a member of the Foreman[1]/Katello team, we are in the process of moving from EL7 to EL8 in our infra, git-annex is heavily used in our builds. Should we check another place for this package?

Seems like the branch was made but the work wasn't done yet. Do any of the maintainers know why this hasn't happened yet?
Packages are not automatically branched for each EPEL version. Each package must be branched by a packager for each particular release, and packagers may or may not be interested in EPEL-8 while they were interested in EPEL-7.[1]
The preferred method of asking a maintainer for an EPEL branch is to file a ticket in bugzilla[2] against the "Fedora EPEL" product.
In short, nobody's asked for it yet. But you can.
