Recently, epel7 was added to the pkgdb

Would someone please explain the following:
1. Why is one branch called el6 and the next epel7 instead of
el7 ?
because epel7 better fits the EPEL project, I suppose
2. Why is there a .csvignore file in the initial epel7 branch ?
because the epel7 branch was branched off the very first commit (F-7,
F-8 times) in the repo
3. Should I just copy or git merge files from the master branch
to epel7 ?
yes, you can do a merge with master or some other branch or do whatever
you need
