And, I suppose:

%changelog -s <Subversion_repo>
%changelog -c <CVS_repo>
%changelog -m <Monotone_repo>
%changelog -h <Mercurial_repo>
%changelog -a <Arch_repo>
%changelog -b <Bazaar_repo>

No.  Just implementing -f (local file) solves 80% of cases.  Git most
of the rest.  No one cares about other version control systems.

You dont need incompatible-with-rpm-prior-x.y.z %changelog flags for
this. At least Mageia and Mandriva have been pulling their rpm
changelogs from their dist-vcs for years, see eg
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Packaging_guidelines#Changelogs

Right. I think *this* is actually rather more practical than trying to auto-generate update descriptions. I see much more difference between an update description and a package changelog than between a package changelog and a package SCM commit log.
