In [rpkg#725](https://pagure.io/rpkg/pull-request/725), there was a need to
authoritative documentation of different ways to declare source and patch files
in a specfile, but people involved could not find any. The natural place for
this would be [Spec file
format](https://rpm-software-management.github.io/rpm/manual/spec.html), but it
has only very basic description of Source and Patch. I tried looking at other
pages as well, but still could not find anything.
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
[rpkg#725](https://pagure.io/rpkg/pull-request/725)
**Describe the solution you'd like**
In my opinion, a good description of Source and Patch would include, either in
those sections or
1.Numbered SourceXX form
2. Unnumbered Source form
3. %sourcelist and %patchlist
Additionally, I could not find the statement that tags are parsed in
case-insensitive manner in the spec file format page. It would be good to have
that as well.
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
none
**Additional context**
none
