The "Join the package collection maintainers" page gives the warning:
Be sure that you build for rawhide (master) branch before pushing updates for any other branches! Otherwise, those updates will get inherited into rawhide, which is almost certainly not what you want.
I've never really understood that, but it's never previously caused me any concern. Since I am now in a situation where I want to push an update to a branch (f16) without pushing any change to rawhide, it has me worried. Can someone please elaborate on how this "inheriting" updates into rawhide works, and what can be done to avoid it? I suppose the meaning is probably crystal clear to everyone else who has read that warning, but apparently I'm being dense again.
