%prep is for preparing to build. So things like untarring source files and
applying patches.
%build is for actually building.
%install is for putting things into the %{buildroot} (aka $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
So in your example, since there is no source (you're just dropping the files
you retrieved into the filesystem), you'd want to do your mkdir -p and cp -p
SOURCEFILE %{buildroot}/DESTINATION_DIR/FILENAME in %install.
