I want to build a rpm of my project automated. So when I push a new tag to my git repo, it should build a rpm from this tag revision. My problem is, how can I prep the sources and specify it in the RPM Spec file?
Is it possible to specify the git repo directly? Like: Source0: git://myserver/mygit.git
But what when I want to have the git repo available via https?
Any hints are appreciated! :)
Cheers, Thilo

What is a SPEC File? A SPEC file can be thought of as the "recipe" that the rpmbuild utility uses to actually build an RPM. It tells the build system what to do by defining instructions in a series of sections. The sections are defined in the Preamble and the Body.
rpmbuild is used to build both binary and source software packages. A package consists of an archive of files and meta- data used to install and erase the archive files. The meta-data includes helper scripts, file attributes, and descriptive information about the package.
No. The URL in SourceX is being completely ignored by rpmbuild. Rpmbuild just take the basename and expect it to be present in %{_topdir}/SOURCES/
If you want to create RPM from your git archive easily then please check mock-scm or Tito.
