I checked the comps XML files from BaseOS and AppStream today, and
those XML files are different than this file in Git.

For example, the BaseOS Yum repo's comps.xml has one "file-sever"
group, and AppStream's comps.xml has another "file-system" group, and
they are combined in the comps file that CentOS uses for Pungi.
