Source Code Description:
All CentOS 7 component sources are https://git.centos.org/ , all srpm are generated automatically when compiling the binary package, and the srpm package is stored in the vault.centos.com corresponding directory. Compared with binary RPMs, the source code RPMs consumes much less bandwidth, so we did not put the source package in the main mirror network. If users want to mirror these content, they can use the Reposync functionality provided in the Yum-utils package, and all srpm packages and corresponding binary source packages use the same key signature.
