Some of these packages have invented home-brewed methods to generate
the Patch lines in the spec file, eg:
FYI: Several projects use Tito [1], which allows you to operate on (unpacked) git tree
(usually clonned). Do changes
directly in git.
And if you call simply `tito build --rpm` with builder configured as
`tito.distributionbuilder.DistributionBuilder`. It will create pristine tar ball from last
upstream tag (and that tar
have same timestamps as upstream and therefore md5 will match). And automatically modify
spec (in temporary directory) with:
Patch0: foo-1.2-1-to-foo-1.2-2.patch
Patch1: foo-1.2-1-to-foo-1.2-3.patch
Where each patch is concated commits between tagged releases.
You can find more information in:
yum install tito
man tito.props
man tito
And BTW Tito have interface to Fedora dist-git (man releasers.conf).
