It really makes them equivalent. Once unpacked, you can do everything on it with git commands. In my workaround for resolving the stale files issue I was using git stash, but git pull is possible as well. So for an initial setup of the build environment it is faster to grab a snapshot, unpack it and optionally do a git pull. @Michael Niedermayer: The stale files did not re-appear, so the issue was solved.
