There used to be some differences between Fedora and EPEL packaging guidelines, which were
explained in the docs [1].
I don't find any mention in that doc to EPEL8, does that mean there aren't any
differences or that the page isn't updated for EPEL8?

I believe the answer is "yes" ... to both.
As far as I know, there aren't any differences. Where there are
differences, we're trying to get rid of the differences.
Example is that the automatic python dependencies weren't turned on in
epel8. That should be fixed in a few days, so you should be able to
use your fedora python specs in epel8.
But, it would probably be good to update that page and say that there
aren't any differences.

I've also seen that there are some files in the newly created epel8 branch:
.cvsignore, Makefile and package.cnf.
I would like to do a `git merge master` to sync epel8 branch with fedora rawhide, but
doing that would delete these files... do I have to checkout every single files one by one
from Rawhide?

That is up to you. If you do a 'git merge master' and those three
files are removed, things will still build just fine in epel8.
If you want your package to build in both epel8 and epel8-playground
with each build, then you should leave package.cnf alone, or add it
later.
That is a personal preference. I don't have it in my packages ...usually.

'git merge master' will not remove or change those files.

'git merge master' will not remove or change those files.
Or at least won't remove package.cnf unless you had one in master. I'm
not sure what's up with the others.
