In Centos 7, I want to install some packages that I see in the following URL:http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7.4.1708/extras/x86_64/Packages/
How can I add this URL to my yum package manager ?
PS: downloading a single rpm file doesn't work, because it looks recursively for dependencies with the same version.
centos package-management yum rpm repository

That repo is already in the base set of repos for CentOS 7.

Why do you want to pin the repo to a specific version?

I want a specific package version that exists only in this repo version.

Force the releasever and then pin the package.

Take a peek at the files /etc/yum.conf and the ones in /etc/yum.repos.d, you should be able to cobble up something for unofficial repositories. That if they don't publish a package containing the required configuration.
You certainly can also download all needed packages, and install them "by hand" with yum. But that way you won't get updates automatically.

Since this is an official repository, that seems unnecessary.

The question was about unofficial repositories...

I had to add a new repo file: e.g. /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-7.4.1708.repo with repo configuration:
[extras741708]
name=Extras packages for CentOS 7.4.1708 for x86_64
baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7.4.1708/extras/x86_64/
enabled=1
Then, to install for example docker-1.12.6-55.gitc4618fb.el7.centos (which has dependencies in the same Packages), run:
$ sudo yum install -y docker-1.12.6-55.gitc4618fb.el7.centos
Options --disablerepo=* with --enablerepo=extras741708 can be used to enforce only the new repo file to be considered.
--- UPDATE ---
Package version 7.4.1708 doesn't exist anymore in mirror.centos.org. You should rather use: baseurl=http://vault.centos.org/centos/7.4.1708/extras/x86_64/
