Accidentally deleted the files in yum.repos.d in oracle 7.7

Hello, I accidentally deleted the files in yum.repos.d, I'm aware now of how terrible a mistake this was, and have been working the past couple days to restore them. I'm pretty sure as long as I find the correct mirror list I can save this machine, if anyone can point me in the right direction I'd very much appreciate it.

Please describe how you solved it.

The easiest way I can come up with is

Code:

wget https://yum.oracle.com/public-yum-ol7.repo

In short, that's basically what I found. I created a new repo file using what you've linked and was then able to use yum as a I needed.
