This is an extremely welcome change and I would like to shower praise upon everyone who worked on it. One thing I noticed while perusing the new docs: the documentation for %autosetup is incomplete. The doc reads: "Generally %autosetup accepts the same arguments as %setup does", but the section on %setup no longer exists. Only the unique arguments for %autosetup are listed.
