I presume that by "source" you mean the code.  SVN 4.2 BRANCH is 
currently reporting version number: 4.2.1.

For the latest 4.2, use SVN and download with:

	svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/4.2

This changes everyday and processionally some of it won't build.

You also need:

	svn co \
svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/tags/kdesupport-for-4.2/kdesupport

Note that despite the fact that: "kdesupport" is in tags that it is 
updated processionally.

Some distros are shipping stuff from ExtraGear.  You can look at it here:

http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/extragear/

Get Konqueror plugins (Tools) with:

	svn co \
svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/extragear/base/konq-plugins

Remember that ExtraGear is in TRUNK and might not be as stable as the 
4.2 BRANCH.
