This should push the new sources (compressed tarball, whatever), defined
under SOURCE* in the spec file to the cache storing the sources.
For just local builds, this step is not necessary. You could run
fedpkg mockbuild
I found that mockbuild still retrieves what's in sources. I guess a
possible workaround is to remove the entries from sources and rely on
spectool.
As a non-packager you also can't run new-source. So perhaps new-sources
should gain a --no-upload flag? --noop sounds wrong if it does make
changes and a prep-sources command makes the command listing less
useful.
