Hi, I'll try to do this. I took the maintainer job, but the job
doesn't contain this part. I'll figure it out. But it needs some time.

If you want to download the package in spec file, you can do like this:

   1 Name:        mdadm
   2 Version:     4.4
   3 # extraversion is used to define rhel internal version
   4 %define extraversion 3
   5 Release:     %{extraversion}%{?dist}
   6 Summary:     The mdadm program controls Linux md devices
(software RAID arrays)
   7 URL:         https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/mdadm/mdadm.git
   8 License:     GPLv2+
   9
  10 Source:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/mdadm/mdadm.git/snapshot/%{name}-%{version}%{?subversion:-%{subversion}}.tar.gz

This is my way. Hope this helps you.

Best Regards
Xiao
