Nitpicking: maybe a comment or two at the appropriate places in the spec file (especially near "Source0") pointing towards that readme would be good afauics, as that's where a lot of people will look and might get puzzled otherwise. > and something to break the patches out for > those who prefer dist-git[1].

Ohh, seems you got me wrong here a little bit. I don't care much about it, I only noticed it's still there and afaics broken. So decide yourself. I think it was good to have it in the past, but not so much now kernel.spec became even harder to understand for people that want to use it as base for a customized package. At least if I was not familiar with how things work I would simply not use something as base that has a 100m file "Source0: linux-20200416git9786cab67457.tar.xz" in it, as it's not that easy to check if that is pristine. That's why I would have strongly preferred if you had continued to use the regular tarballs and patch-x.y.z.xz files as a base, but well, I can see that would have made things more complicated.
