As well as looking at:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ffmpeg/tree/
I've found it useful to look at other work done in recent forks e.g.
https://src.fedoraproject.org/fork/yselkowitz/rpms/ffmpeg/commits/rawhide
and other distros; OpenSuSE and Arch are like Fedora; Gentoo is like Cygwin;
OpenBSD is behind on v4 so skipped:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ffmpeg-full
https://packages.debian.org/source/sid/ffmpeg
