Looking at that API, I've got a few questions:

Under "List projects", is there a way to search for projects with a 
specific branch (ie, find projects with c7 branch)?
Under "List projects", is there a way to search for projects with any 
commits/activity after a certain date range (so I can only check for 
updates within the last few days)?

Generically, will the scripts in 
https://git.centos.org/summary/centos-git-common.git be ported over?  
Our work flow is entirely dependent on : centos.git.repolist.py 
into_srpm.sh  show_possible_srpms.sh
