Provide ability to create new repofile after installing

[cswiii]

Let's say we want to test an upgrade after installing a product (say, GA compose). The cycle might be something like

• Install product
• Run populate test
• Point server to repo with latest compose
• Install new updates and restart

If we get issues #71 resolved, it seems it could work something like

• cdn_install
• (automated population)
• generate_compose_repofile
• update_rpms

This would help catch dependency issues in rpm or the like, as well.

What would your desired input be for this function? Just the repo url, or a name and other values as well? If just the URL, we could faux the rest. Echo it all into a new repo file and job done.

I have been trying to figure out if we can just reuse the BASE_URL value or if we should use a different variable.

I don't know that we need anything specific, it could possibly be as simple as

[sat-upgrade]
name=sat-upgrade
baseurl=BASE_URL #or do we want something else here?
enabled=1

If we can pull what we need from BASE_URL then that will be perfect.
