For the URL, I'd suggest just using the cgit URL for now:

 http://git.gnome.org/cgit/mutter

(I don't think the moblin URL is appropriate.)

Some more drive-by comments:

BuildRequires: gobject-introspection-devel
[...]
  --without-introspection

Those two conflict. We'll definitely need an introspection-enabled package of
Mutter for F12, so we can package gnome-shell. That will mean making sure that
the Clutter package is introspection enabled as well, and that we have
up-to-date versions of gobject-introspection and gir-repository packaged.

BuildRequires: fontconfig-devel
BuildRequires: libglade2-devel
BuildRequires: mesa-libGL-devel
BuildRequires: xorg-x11-proto-devel

These seem extraneous.

BuildRequires: zenity

This should be a Requires: along with a BuildRequires.

  --disable-xinerama

Why?

At a high level, getting to packaging the gnome-shell stack for Fedora:

 gobject-introspection [already old version packaged, I think]
 gir-repository [there's a review request]
 clutter-0.9
 gjs
 mutter
 gnome-shell

Is something that I want the gnome-shell team to get to soon (though probably
not until after GUADEC); and to do that, we'll definitely push out tarball
releases rather than packaging git snapshots. We're happy to have
co-maintainers and people helping out with that.
