And how about making it a bit shorter? Until now I added
".vanilla.knurd.1" for my vanilla builds
(https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Kernel_Vanilla_Repositories ), but doing
that now exceeds the 64 char limit now and thus results in build error.
No big deal, I can remove the ".knurd", but I liked the old way more, as
that made it more obvious *what* kind of kernel this is and *who* built it.

And is the "2020" really that important when we have 5.7-rc1 already?
How about changing "20200414git" to "0414g" and get something like this
(saves 7 chars):

kernel-5.7.0-0.rc1.0414g8632e9b5645b.1.fc33.BUILDID.src.rpm

Anyway, I don't care to much, just a suggestion, no need for a big bike
shedding debate.

Cu, knurd
