I want to lock a specific package to use the updates-testing repository. Not 
only for one release, but all coming releases for that package. I believe your 
first post did that, with some caveats(manually need to allow other packages to 
be installed using a configuration file)

Using man dnf or man 8 dnf I couldn't find what I was looking for, regarding 
includepkgs, but I'm thankful for your initial answer that probably solves it.

Only thing regarding includepkgs was something about repoid.option for the 
option and setopt=.
 --setopt=<option>=<value>
              Override a configuration option from the configuration file. To 
override configuration options for repositories, use repoid.option for the 
<option>. Values for  configuration
              options  like  excludepkgs,  includepkgs,  installonlypkgs  and  
tsflags are appended to the original value, they do not override it. However, 
specifying an empty value (e.g.
              --setopt=tsflags=) will clear the option.

I hope I now always will get the mentioned package from the updates-testing, 
whenever there is a release of that package, while the rest is getting updates 
from stable.

Thank you very much for your time.
Sincerely
Max
p.s. basic understanding. My thoughts was that if I install package from 
updates-testing, I should always get package updates for that package through 
update-testing, but if I install an "advisory" thorugh update-testting, It's 
only that single advisory update and it should not break the normal stable 
upgrading of that package.
