I also still see some issues in %autorelease , why fix a typo is a new
release ? 

in  %{forgesource} , as I mention in 
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rawstudio/pull-request/2#comment-167038
"forge date should be the date of the last commit upstream of upstream
git (i.e. git log -1 --format=%cd --date=short | tr -d -)" 

and the most important, I don't see "great" benefits and give me more
work .
