I think what Markus is talking about is to the ability to produce
packages from arbitrary Git commits to be able to test Nova with certain
new features from libvirt / QEMU which won't be available until a formal
release is pushed out.

Somewhat analogus to the Fedora virt-preview-repository[1]:

    "The Virtualization Preview Repository is for people who would like
    to test the very latest virtualization related packages. This
    repository is intended primarily as an aid to testing / early
    experimentation. It is not intended for 'production' deployment."
