### EPEL minor version aliases
832+
833+
Starting with EPEL 10, there are [different dist-git branches](https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/epel/branches/#_epel_10)
834+
and Koji targets for currently active minor versions:
835+
836+
* The main/default branch/target called `epelX` (e.g. `epel10`) that represents
837+
the latest (leading) minor release and corresponds to CentOS Stream X.
838+
* The `epelX.Y` (e.g. `epel10.0`) branch/target that represents
839+
the previous (trailing) minor release and corresponds to RHEL X.Y.
840+
841+

See the [EPEL 10 proposal](https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/epel-10-proposal)
844+
for more information, FAQ and discussion about this change and don't hesitate to provide
845+
your feedback through proper channels, for instance
846+
the [epel-devel](https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/)
847+
mailing list.
848+
849+
:::
850+
851+
To give you flexibility in what distributions you want to target with your EPEL builds,
852+
Packit provides these aliases:
853+
854+
* `epel-X` — the current/leading minor release (e.g. `epel10`)
855+
* `epel-X-branched` — the branched/trailing minor release (e.g. `epel10.0`)
856+
* `epel-X-all` — both minor releases (e.g. `epel10`, `epel10.0`)
857+
858+
::: note
859+
860+
The `epel-all` alias includes all active minor versions of all active major EPEL releases.
861+
862+
:::
863+
864+
::: info
865+
866+
For Copr builds all EPEL 10 minor version aliases are currently mapped to the `epel-10` target.
867+
This is subject to change.
