Not sure, but I guess it's not interesting/useful.

Usually you either look at a source rpm, or rebuild it to get a binary
rpm. You do not install it.

Developers in oVirt generally do not do even that, but work with git repos.

I suggest looking at the following links as a start. If you need
something else, please provide more details.

https://www.ovirt.org/develop/developer-guide/engine/engine-development-environment/

That said, the below links are yum repos. Add them as the baseurl of
repos and you should be able to install PKG.src. See also e.g.:

Best,
