How are you using those links to download the tarball? As far as I know if you download through a browser, it will always rename the tarball to %{name}-%{commit0}, but if you download with wget or curl [0], you should get the tarball name you chose. Note however that the folder name within the tarball will always be %{name}-%{commit0}, so the interest of naming the tarball itself differently is limited.
