The individual TDE apps can be cloned from Trinity git, so the build is set up to do that - except for individual language packs of tde-i18n. The whole tde-i18n download is ~1x10^6 bytes, so to reduce that, wget is used to download individual tde-i18n-ab_CD packs as they are not git repositories.
Once any git repository has been cloned, further downloads are updates only[*].
This gives the best options - only fetching what is needed, and incremental updates.
The git repositories are cloned to 'src/cgit', arranged in this tree format ignoring whether they are in Core, Deps, etc.

For the build, these repositories are copied to the build area where the R14.0.4 archives would otherwise be extracted. admin & cmake are also always copied, and libltdl and libtdevnc where they're needed.
This has resulted in most of the modifications being in the main scripts, BUILD-TDE.sh and get-source.sh [in getsource_fn and untar_fn]. tde-i18n.SlackBuild had to be modified because it doesn't use untar_fn. Some other *.SlackBuild modifications are work-arounds to accommodate the patching already included in the git sources.
All packages in the BUILD-TDE.sh " TDE Packages Selection " have now been tested and build using gcc - except for kdbusnotification:
In file included from daemon.moc.cpp:9:0:
../../../src/daemon/daemon.h:25:42: error: expected initializer before ‘:’ token
class TDEUI_EXPORT NotificationContainer : public TDEPassivePopupStackContainer

[*] I'm sure that checking timestamps with wget did work when I set it up, but it doesn't now as the server doesn't seem to be delivering that information. The consequence is that if tde-i18n-$lang is a part of the build after its initial download, it will be downloaded again. As the latest update was a year ago, once built, there will probably be no need to do so again and so tde-i18n for a particular language will probably only be run once. On that basis I don't see this being a significant issue.
