What the heck are you talking about ... rpmbuild -ba <name>.src.rpm

It builds if you install the proper packages from the CentOS repos.

Using mock and a CentOS Tree can reproduce CentOS just as easily.

We are creating git.centos.org so that everyone can look at and build
any of the packages.

We are creating a variants program so that projects can take CentOS as a
base and create (on our servers) respins of the ISOs and/or repositories
that get branded as CentOS.  They can collaborate, ON OUR SYSTEMS, to
build things for the community to use.

I have no earthly idea what you are talking about ... although, you are
certainly free to use (or not use) CentOS however you choose.

I just wish you would research your fact before you post garbage on the
list.
