Source0: s.tar.xz Patch*: [0-9]*.patch # or even "Patch*: *.diff" -- whatever it is you want for your package

The kernel packages use patches.tar.xz and get away with it. Every package with more than a dozen patches is most likely easier to handle with that approach :)

Isn't it much harder to review changes with that approach?

Not really.

First, these tarballs are typically generated from git which is easy to review in git.

Second, OBS web UI can show diffs of files inside a tarball.

It won't show for big tarballs which is the case for kernel, so let's not do this unless you are kernel.

If your tarball with patches is so big that OBS won't show diff of it then storing it as separate files will make your spec file and changelog listing all the patches _really_ big. Don't think that's a great idea. In that case you have to review the patches where they come from which is what the kernel does.
