Eclipse, git and source bundles

Hi,

There's an outstanding PR which brings Eclipse up to 4.3.2:
  https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=188659

Unfortunately, this has been rejected as it clones a git-repo in order
to run a build. I've had a look around the 'Net, and I can't seem to
find a source download for the Eclipse 4.3.2. The older bundles can be
found at: http://download.eclipse.org/technology/linuxtools/eclipse-build/
; but this appears for have been discontinued for later versions.

What should be the course of action if the upstream does not provide a
source-bundle and expects a developer to check out the version from
git in order to build a proejct?

Cheers
