I can answer it only from the MirrorManager side. It it the expected behaviour and is related to the tooling creating the repositories. That is all I know. MirrorManager handles is correctly and if repo files have been edited it usually is up to the user to adapt to changes. This answer is probably not very helpful but it would be interesting to know why people are changing their repo files. To avoid situation like this is the reason why we handle it in MirrorManager. > If this is not a proper list to ask this question, can someone point out > which list shall I ask for information?
