Depends of what you mean by 'source'.

Most of the source comes from 2 places:
    * bigtop-package/src/common/<component>
    * bigtop-package/src/rpm/SOURCES

With an exception of the source tarball which gets downloaded
from the target location (recorded in bigtop.mk).

All of this is coded in package.mk -- that's your source of truth.

Thanks,
