In your example, the forge macros simplify the spec file only because a

field, which is still permissible but deprecated[1].

Without the forge macros, the spec file would admittedly be a little more 
complex. I would probably do something like the following:

%global commit   791953030836d39687688a8e7f1a3e708892cfa1
%global snapdate 20230420

Version: 1.2^%{snapdate}git%(echo '%{commit}' | cut -b -7)
Release: 1%{?dist}

Minor comment:
   %(c=%{commit}; echo ${c:0:7})
is a bit nicer because it doesn't require 'cut', it just uses 'echo',
which is a shell builtin.

Or in rpm >= 4.19 (just landed in rawhide), you can just do

        %{sub %{commit} 1 8}

There's a bunch of new macro string operations like that, see the related group in https://rpm-software-management.github.io/rpm/manual/macros
