CentOS-7 / CR repo has been populated

Waiting for the new package set in the next CentOS-7 release ? A majority of them are now available on every CentOS-7 machine by running the following commands :

---

yum update
yum --enabelrepo=cr list updates

Its important you run a ‘yum update’ first, since the cr repo definitions are only available in the newer centos-release rpms. Once you are happy with the new content that is going to come via the CR repos, you can apply them with :
yum --enablerepo=cr update

For more information on whats been pushed to these CR Repos, look at the announcement email at : http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2015-March/020955.html
