I just took a look at this, since it sounded like something I might be
able to do. fedpkg-minimal is pretty straightforward:
https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/fedpkg-minimal.git/tree/bin/fedpkg
Unfortunately, an RPM Fusion equivalent will need to know whether or not
the package in question is in free/ or in nonfree/, because of the dist-git
namespacing. e.g. the curl line should become
"$baseurl/free/$pkgname/$tarball/$md5sum/$tarball" or
"$baseurl/nonfree/$pkgname/$tarball/$md5sum/$tarball". Assuming I'm not
missing something obvious, I can think of three ways to deal with this:
a. Provide rfpkg-free and rfpkg-nonfree scripts, one for each namespace.
b. Attempt to download both and ignore failures (curl ... || true?), then
check to see if the file exists before proceeding.
c. Somehow determine whether a package is in free/ or nonfree/ at runtime.
This would be the optimal solution but I'm not sure if there's a good way
to do it. Perhaps checking .git/config for a configured remote with URL
containing "free" or "nonfree"?
Thoughts?

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.
