Includes in pre scripts

What is the difference between "%include something" and "sh /something"?


What is a good reason to use %include then?  

Are you saying this because the include is above the %pre?  In other
words, do you also want to use "sh /tmp/something" instead of include in
a %pre or %post stanza?

You don't want to include /tmp/pre.sh, you want to run it

sh /tmp/pre.sh
