You can specify a directory where the build should download the files to.
It defaults to a subdirectory of the checkout.
You can use --with-external-tar to change this.

In either case the build should not redownload files that are on disk.

Recompiling is different from redownloading.

If yo u do make clean, it needs to recompile, but doesn't need to refetch.

Either the version of the externals was updated since your last build or
the files were no longer in the download folder.
