Getting list of repos which apt is checking

Howdy,

I posted the following question to stackoverflow, have not gotten any
help. I hoped it would be straight forward, apt seems able to report
most anything it is asked about. Is this not the case here?

I want a list of repos in sources.list, plus those in sources.list.d/.

Can I get this list in a form suitable for setting up another host so it watches the same repos?

Additionally, how do I determine which repo is the source of a package, either installed or available?

Thanks,
Kent
