One option is that you can toggle off the "auto createrepo" feature. As long as this is off, you will build the repository in separate directory named "devel". When you toggle it ON back again, the repository should be regenerated with the new packages. https://docs.pagure.org/copr.copr/user_documentation.html#i-see-some-strange-error-about-devel-repodata-in-logs > > Fork it and rebuild there.

Besides, I've got the order, that's not the problem. Another possibility is the fork, but forking such large project would be storage-expensive. Actually another possibility is to build in **separate** project against the main, large project (build time additional repo). Then, when ready, you could "fork back" the new project into the main existing project (we should call this "merge" in future). There's at least this small bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1851827 so honestly, this isn't well known and tested feature and I'd encourage you to test this first on something smaller.
