ovirt-wgt is a project for building the oVirt Guest Tools ISO and its
wrapping RPM. It contains VirtIO Windows drivers, SPICE drivers, QEMU Guest
Agent and oVirt Guest Agent.

You don't really need to, but if you want to do that:
$ sudo yum install
https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release42.rpm
$ git clone https://gerrit.ovirt.org/ovirt-wgt
$ cd ovirt-wgt
$ yum install `cat automation/build-artifacts.packages`
$ automation/build-artifacts.sh

should do the build.

Current builds are available:
https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.2/iso/oVirt-toolsSetup/4.2-4.el7/
https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.2/rpm/el7/noarch/ovirt-guest-tools-iso-4.2-4.el7.noarch.rpm
