But you see that the build is disabled for snapshot repo for the most
packages
https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/openSUSE:Factory

I don't know how exactly the 13.1 project is configured but I know that
(currently) the 13.1 (rc1) download repo is just a redirect to
factory-snapshot, see

Yes but snapshot repo is still freezed.
