How I hit this -
Wanted to test pacific cephadm

curl --silent --remote-name --location https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ceph/ceph/pacific/src/cephadm/cephadm

As pacific rpms were not available at https://download.ceph.com/ add-repo failed saying

# ./cephadm add-repo --release pacific

Later tried adding 'abcd', ceph adm was looking for rpm-abcd in download.ceph.com
It would be nice if we can restrict adding new repos if the repo name is invalid
