Please consider the use of signed GPG tags for actualSRPM updates, rather than merely relying on '[package].metadata, to help assure provenance for people who may test or rebuild security components.
the content you get is pushed over https, the implementation on git.centos.org seems fairly secure. the content into the machine is via ssh, over a guranteed ( in as much as network can be guranteed ) link.
we are also preventing anyone else from being able to commit with the source importer username/email and or using the word 'import' as the first chat in the commit.
some of this is convention, but as the source that we consume, we are fairly sure of what is going through. If there are any specific concerns about code, do point them out - and if its security related, then email security@centos.org instead of a public list.
