For example, spec file diff for the latest C7 kernel update can be seen here: https://git.centos.org/rpms/kernel/c/c53828b00fb26a7f96b149eef5e220a5ed4cc4e5?branch=c7#_5 Akemi

But, is there some yum/dnf utility which can show the changelog changes? If not, then I may expand one of my rpm tools to do it. Simon
