Not sure if its intentional or not but the misunderstanding
in the communication is ridiculous. Some one argues that the code
is available and forget to explain what code is mentioned. If a bumped
version of a package fixes an issue (stream variant of CentOS) e.g 2.2,
and a released package (rhel variant) has a backported fix for e.g. 2.1,
that doesn't mean that the code is also in the stream git just because
both code fragments fixes the same issue. The backported code can be
very different, and its not in the git branch of the stream variant.
So, that code is not available in git, and to cite Michael "and never
will be."
