You can look at the your current "fedora" or "updates" repo file and use 
them as your template. In the new file you create, replace "$releasever" 
with the appropriate string for Fedora 13. You can find this by browsing 
the directory structure of any of the fedora repos. You would need to 
create 2 repo files, one for the F13 beta release[1], another for F13 
updates[2]. The directory for release will be simpler to figure out if 
you can wait until the release of F13.

Another (simpler) way to do this would be to download the F13 release 
rpm, and do

$ rpm2cpio /path/to/F13-release.rpm |cpio -ivV

The repo files should be in there. :)
