> FWIW, I've been pondering the amount of build process detail to include here too. The question is what to do with https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/blob/master/docs/manual/buildprocess.md - should that be a separate manual, or should we include this information in the rpmbuild man page?

Good question. If we assume that for the vast majority of users, rpmbuild is *the* package building tool, then putting this info into that man page seems right. Also, having a man page called something like rpm-buildprocess(7) could be a little confusing (is it rpm's own build process, or package build process?).
