The bundle also contains a full git repo, just git clone can't resume
after a network error, while wget'ing the bundle can. That can be
helpful in case of crappy network or so.

Jayant, here is how it works for me:

wget http://dev-www.libreoffice.org/bundles/libo_git_from_tar.sh
sh libo_git_from_tar.sh core

Then you have a git checkout of core.git in ./libo. (Probably the first
thing you want to do in that repo is to run 'git pull -r'.)

HTH,

Miklos
