Description Audrey Yeena Toskin 2015-11-12 07:12:01 UTC 
I discovered your package auto-buildrequires while reading about RPM spec files in the Fedora wiki. Including some documentation, either as a man page or commandline `--help` message, would be helpful. Currently, as far as I can tell, auto-buildrequires only duplicates the `rpmbuild --help` message, which doesn't help for learning specifically about the buildrequires script. And the usage notes at your Red Hat People page, and in the git repo's README file, are a little sparse. For example, I can't figure out the difference between `auto-br-rpmbuild` and `auto-br`.

Thanks.
