I second the request to use "rawhide" for rawhide branches.

The way that branches in dist-git are used is very different from how
branches are used in the usual git repo, so I find the argument that
the same rules as in other repos should be used convincing. If we rename
it to rawhide, we have the simple rule that "branch of a given name is
used to build for that Fedora release", without any further explanation
about one exception necessary.
