For example, `guix build --with-source=youtube-dl=blahblah mpv` builds
mpv normally, after giving a message: guix build: warning:
transformation 'with-source' had no effect on mpv@0.32.0

From 'guix build --help:'
      --with-source=SOURCE
                         use SOURCE when building the corresponding package
      --with-input=PACKAGE=REPLACEMENT
                         replace dependency PACKAGE by REPLACEMENT

I think what you're looking for is more of:

guix build --no-grafts mpv --with-input=youtube-dl=$(guix build --no-grafts youtube-dl --with-source=https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/releases/download/2020.06.16/youtube-dl-2020.06.16.tar.gz)

This didn't work for me though, I got:
guix build: error: /gnu/store/9ncacjhzwlchpr1y5fd8ahdq59dsya20-youtube-dl-2020.06.16: unknown package

Even if that worked, it doesn't fix the issue of the --with-source flag
not working on the specified package's inputs.

That command doesn't work because you're giving it a store path, not a
package specification.

‘--with-source’ is documented to be “shallow”: unlike ‘--with-input’ &
co., it doesn’t apply recursively.

I think we should change it though.

(In response to issue at https://issues.guix.info/issue/42155):

I want to be able to specify dependency sources, so I am working on this 
issue. It's complicated because --with-source= can take a simple source 
(implying the package being built should be built from SOURCE) or 
package=source (AIUI implying PACKAGE in the specified list of packages 
should be built from SOURCE).  Should we deprecate the current 
interpretation of "--with-source=package=source"? Or would it be better 
to preserve these options and make a new recursive 
'--with-dependency-source=package=source' option?

I'm leaning towards making the option 
"--with-dependency-source=package=source" because I think that will be 
easier to accomplish and maintain. But if anyone has a compelling reason 
to deprecate the old usage, I am willing to listen.

Closing, since that's been implemented per
28ade1bab207974cce6a014e7187968511fc5526 ("transformations:
'--with-source' now operates in depth.") last September.
