Umm.. did you expand the macros? I tested it with
 $ spectool -g reptyr.spec
and it worked.

It's not working anymore, since the tarball doesn't exist anymore. The current
snapshot from the master branch is 
 nelhage-reptyr-reptyr-0.2-2-g919fff7.tar.gz
In the 0.2 tag it is
 nelhage-reptyr-reptyr-0.2-2-g919fff7.tar.gz

Note that this is a review blocker.

I was able to get the same tarball as you before, so this is not true.

It's not a problem if the source URL doesn't work anymore after the revision in
question has vanished from upstream.

However, that way it's just way easier for the maintainer to plug in the
correct snapshot ID in the spec file and run
 $ spectool -g package.spec

Whenever you use snapshots from VCS, you MUST insert the snapshot revision in
the Release field.

Whoops, my mistake.
