Yup, that's precisely what I was thinking. I cobbled up an add-on to Mark Allen's patch yesterday, but didn't send it since Pasky didn't seem too interested in the idea. Anyway, here it is to demonstrate the idea. The current setup is definitely workable, just means each release tarball will build a bogus package with rpmbuild -ta. So I just fix up the spec and then build...

thanks, -chris --

Autogen git.spec from git.spec.in.  Needs patch from Mark Allen.
