Craig,

Become root. Then:

# cd /etc/yum.repos.d
# ls *.repo
Pick the one that has a Rawhide stanza.
Open that file with your editor:

        # vi desired.repo
        
A "stanza" looks like this (obviously not the one you want, but...)
        [epel-testing-source]
        name=Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 6 - Testing - $basearch - Source
        #baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/testing/6/SRPMS
        mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=testing-source-epel6&arch=$basearch
        failovermethod=priority
        enabled=1
        gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6
        gpgcheck=1
        
Arrow down to the enabled=1 line and change it to enabled=0, then write
and quit (:wq!)
