Ill-advised, and it is not what most packagers have been doing for several
years at Red Hat Linux and the Fedora Project.

Better get used to *no* macros at all in patch file names. Why? For many
thousands of patch files, they still apply fine even when %version changes. Not
so, if you use a %version macro in the Patch tag. You would need to rename the
patch files in git and touch the spec file, too, just to make the patch apply
again.
