Hi,
In practice, after bug [1] I decided rollback update on epel 7 with one
epoch bump [2]. Now after one year and half and after testing, we know
if we removing one line it works, so I want rollback the rollback and
update debmirror on epel7 to support Ubuntu 20.04 ...
the question is, can I remove Epoch tag ? or should I put Epoch in
every branch, i.e epel 8 ?
Thank you .

Once you introduce the epoch, you have to keep it. And only increment it.
There is no way to get it rid of it. At least no way I can recommend :)

Epochs can *only* be reset on system upgrades, because you're either
reinstalling or using the distro-sync upgrade method (which does not
necessarily care about EVRs).
Neither case happens within a particular EPEL branch. So you're stuck
with it until the next RHEL major version release.
