What determines the source directory?

It's the dir of the unpacked tarball under %{_topdir}/BUILD. It's
available as ${RPM_BUILD_DIR} (+ the directory dir, just as specified
with the %setup macro, or %{name}-%{version} if none).

Do you have a link to somewhere where this is explained in some

It should be in there.
