I have two outstanding PRs that I think are hanging on uploading new
sources to the Lookaside Cache
I have experienced this issue myself and seen it happen to other newcomers several times.
It nullifies the purpose of CI for a population that it can benefit the most. It is
possible to run `fedpkg new-sources --offline`, which updates the `sources` file and
`.gitignore` without actually touching the lookaside cache. This saves the package
maintainer who merges the PR the trouble of creating another commit (they still have to
run `fedpkg new-sources` to actually upload the tarball to the lookaside cahce), but the
whole area still creates unnecessary friction. @msrb submitted a PR[1] to Fedora CI to fix
the issue, but it was never merged.
