I was forced to download these files manually over http://, and thus
individually , because of my troublesome WiFi connexion.

Please, help me to get good value from the files (~450 MiB) I've downloaded.

You would be gentle to show me the steps which will make me get a
usable local git repository.

Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,

Valentin
