I'm running into some formatting issues which make following bits of this somewhat tricky....
I've attached a shell script that works on my system to download and rebuild the CentOS8 sources for samba.
I hope this helps.

It looks like you skipped :

Thank you, Patrick
Perhaps I mis-understand the earlier indicated error at the stop point for me in my earlier post. I had considered your approach, but do not see that this solves the issue by slavishly following the webpage:
lynx -dump https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__wiki.centos.org_Sources...
~/centos-git-common.Sources-20200423.txt
That lynx -dump of the relevant part is:
Assume we want to work with the CentOS kernel sources.
[user@host ~]$ git clone https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__git.centos.org_rpms_ker... ; cd kernel # let's work on the centos7 kernel [user@host kernel]$ git checkout c7 # download binary files [user@host kernel]$ ~/bin/get_sources.sh # switch to the local tree to edit [user@host kernel]$ git checkout -b my-kernel # make edits to SPEC file, etc [user@host kernel]$ git commit -m'my local changes' -a # ensure we can create a srpm [user@host kernel]$ rpmbuild --nodeps --define "%_topdir `pwd`" -bs SPECS/kernel.spec # if that works, [user@host kernel]$ rpmbuild --define "%_topdir `pwd`" -ba SPECS/kernel.spec
(excerpt ends)
Continuing with the later matter does not help, as the path to the tarball file is munged, and so failing to attain the desired result: # ensure we can create a srpm
## RPH, demonstrating: removing the prior fail, and following ## the webpage

I do not live and breathe CentOS' approaches any more, but the somewhat snotty remark earlier in this thread to consult the web page seems not to work
