Concretely, I want yum to look first in /var/cache/yum/updates on my laptop,
then in alfred:/var/cache/yum/updates on a local machine,
and then in the remote repository.

What exactly can I put in /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo 
to implement this?

(The document you mention seems to have over 100 pages,
which to me is information over-kill.)
