To download just the source and not build anything you can use:
$ ../source-builder/sb-set-builder --dry-run --with-download \
--without-error-report \
--without-release-url 4.12/rtems-all
The 'sources' and 'patches' directories will contain the source. Copy the
contents of both directories to a single directory, CD, DVD, server, where ever.
If done on the 4.11 branch the result should look something like:
https://ftp.rtems.org/pub/rtems/releases/4.11/rc/4.11.2-rc4/sources/
You should then be able to use the option:
--url=file://something/local/where/the/source/is
Releasing and deploying can use a VERSION file.
If you are deploying the RSB in an environment such as a project or company and
you wish to create a special version that is not a formal RTEMS release create a
'VERSION' file in the root directory of the RSB.
NOTES:
1. Please avoid using a release string that matches the RTEMS ones we use,
please use something that identifies the deployed release as something you own
and support. For example 4.12-pv1.
2. Only do this if you need to support a team on a common release point and you
are prepared to support the release yourself. Otherwise use git.
The format of the file can be seen by looking the RTEMS 4.11.2-rc4 RSB release.:
[version]
release = 4.11.2-rc4
release_path =
https://ftp.rtems.org/pub/rtems/releases/4.11/rc/4.11.2-rc4/sources
[hashes]
rtems-tools-4.11.2-rc4.tar.xz = sha512

rtems-4.11.2-rc4.tar.xz = sha512

It is an INI format file. The 'hashes' section is used to manage the dependence
issues requiring a hash for the released version when the RSB has source links
that are git repos.

This is something we need to support. Some companies have no or limited internet
support.
If you could test this and contribute with fixes and/or documentation that would
be awesome. I would welcome documentation for the RSB that details standalone
set ups and deployment.
Thank you for asking.
