Why do you think you need to do that?

Because that's the way I must prepare my directories for the build. See package README[0]

Here is my solution, without symlink or buildir/topdir (master.zip is downloaded first with spectool and unzip as platform-master, when name of package is mattermost):
------------
 %prep
mkdir -p src/github.com/mattermost
%setup -q -n platform-master
cd ..
mv platform-master src/github.com/mattermost/platform
cd src/github.com/mattermost/platform
---------------------

It does what I want: src/github.com/mattermost/platform is populated with the package source files.

^^^ (!) Notice what the %autosetup macro did in the lines above!

Because you added "-n platform-master" to the %autosetup macro,
which is the top-level directory to change into for every spec file
section (%prep, %build, %install, even %files section access that
directory when using %doc to include local files, for example).

_Why_ do you want to do that?
