Hi, I was looking at this quick-docs page[1] which is mentioned in the "New package process for existing contributors" page[2]. It now does not use rpmbuild---it uses `fedpkg` and dist-git. This is also linked to the "Join the package maintainers page"[3]. Is this now the suggested way---and is this what newcomers should be using? I see that it has advantages---once packages are approved, we use dist-git. However, on the other hand, it skips the important bits about how rpmbuild really works. Weirdly enough, even though it's using fedpkg + dist-git and therefore does not use the rpmbuild directories, the page still refers to rpmbuild directories when describing the SPEC at some places. So that's quite confusing, especially for newcomers.
