FWIW, epel-release-6 is %config(noreplace) on the repo file -- meaning it won't overwrite user-modified repo files. It might be worthwhile to have %config for the initial release of epel-release-7 (specifically to ensure that "gpgcheck=1" gets added), but after that I'd rather see it as "noreplace". I'll comment on the bug to see if we can get that sorted out.
that would be a good thing to get in - i think the config files should survive a rpm update for site customisations.
I spoke with Jim about this on IRC and he and I are in agreement that it's best to sort it out within EPEL instead of having CentOS make any changes to the package.
