README.md

getsrc

An automatic lookaside grabber supporting all flavors of: Fedora, Rocky Linux, CentOS, CentOS Stream. Easy to extend to other lookaside-based distros as well.

Usage

Download getsrc.sh , save to somewhere in your $PATH
Run getsrc.sh inside a checked-out repo. It will analyze the lookaside list file (".firefox.metadata", for example, or just "sources") and download the source tarballs for you
Now you can do a local build or edit of the package

Audience

I hope this will help anyone who needs to work with packages from different sources/repos in the RPM world.
