mkdir btrfs-distrib
cd btrfs-distrib

git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/btrfs-progs.git
tar --xz -cf btrfs-progs_$(date +%Y%m%d).tar.xz btrfs-progs

md5sum btrfs-progs_$(date +%Y%m%d).tar.xz

mv -v btrfs-progs_$(date +%Y%m%d).tar.xz ../sources

cd ../
rm -rf btrfs-distrib

Then move the source archive to the sources directory of LFScript and edit the btrfs-progs script to point to the new source archive. Don't forget to also adjust the md5 checksum in the script.
