Hi

I got an idea for a new yum command line option, i have called it 
'--enableonly'

It is used to pass a list of the only repositories to be enabled, all 
other repositories are disabled.

Ex.
yum --enableonly=development,extras-development update

This will make yum run with only the development repository enabled and 
update yum.

If i have to do the same to day i have to type.
yum --enablerepo=development --disablerepo=base --disablerepo=extras 
--disablerepo=livna --disablerepo=updates-released update

I have added a patch to yum HEAD, there adds this option, try it out and 
let me know
