Yousong Zhou 75ab064d2b build: download code from github using archive API
A new python script scripts/download.py is added to fetch tarballs using
GitHub archive API [1], then repack in a reproducible way same as the
current DownloadMethod/git

GitHub imposes a 60 reqs/hour rate limit on unauthenticated API
access[2].  This affects fetching commit date for feeding tar --mtime=
argument.  However, observation indicates that archive download is NOT
subject to this limit at the moment.  In the rare cases where download
fails because of this, we will falback to using DownloadMethod/git

The missing piece in the GitHub API is that it cannot provide in the
tarball dependent submodules's source code.  In that case, the
implementation will also fallback to using DownloadMethod/git

 [1] Get archive link, https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/contents/#get-archive-link
 [2] Rate limiting, https://developer.github.com/v3/#rate-limiting

v2 <- v1:

 - allow passing multiple urls with --urls argument
 - add commit ts cache.  can be helpful on retry

README

This is the buildsystem for the OpenWrt Linux distribution.

Please use "make menuconfig" to choose your preferred
configuration for the toolchain and firmware.

You need to have installed gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python, perl, make,
find, grep, diff, unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers.

Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to get all the latest package definitions
defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default respectively
and "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks of all of them into
package/feeds/.

Use "make menuconfig" to configure your image.

Simply running "make" will build your firmware.
It will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain, 
the kernel and all choosen applications.

To build your own firmware you need to have access to a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system
(case-sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin will not be supported because of
the lack of case sensitiveness in the file system.
