Cool; thanks!

I see this file:

  https://git.centos.org/blob/rpms!syslinux/b4d04961d9543ac12b0a41ec6f1a396ebe311cd6/README.md

in turn refers to, for example, the c6 branch for CentOS 6 (my
current universe)

Looking at this tree:

  https://git.centos.org/log/rpms!syslinux/b4d04961d9543ac12b0a41ec6f1a396ebe311cd6

I see nothing for syslinux: does that mean there are no changes at
all for CentOS 6?

Thanks for that, I couldn't quite figure out where Kickstart-specific
stuff kicks in.  I'll try to track down what I can for that, for
CentOS 6...
