The lack of proper git tree and patches is a very unfortunate way to get
things started, I agree.

It is a branch of work. The branch has been done without community
interaction, so yes, it looks like a fork. The whole purpose of getting
spice licensed and released as an open source project is to work towards
eliminating the branch.
I'll repeat what Yaniv said already:
Spice ship patched QEMU based on fairly old KVM snapshot as a reference
implementation. The Spice team plane to push all the relevant bits into
QEMU upstream.
I believe they wanted to get things out as soon as possible.
