MariaDB server is on github: https://github.com/MariaDB/server
Fork it, as explained here: https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo/

Also you need to ensure that you have necessary tools and libraries:
https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/Build_Environment_Setup_for_Linux/

Then you can compile MariaDB server as explained here:
https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/generic-build-instructions/

See also other pages under
https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/compiling-mariadb-from-source/

Does that answer your question?

Regards,
Sergei
