I ended up implementing (c) *and* (b); rfpkg-minimal attempts to read
.git/config and then just tries to download from both if it is not there. I
forked the fedpkg-minimal git repo and pushed to github here:
https://github.com/TC01/rfpkg-minimal

If this looks good, I'm happy to throw together a spec and submit a package
for review.
