The cr.deepin.io git repository is wildly unreliable, or
outright unreachable. They maintain a mirror of those git
sources on github[1], and as a bonus, github offers the
ability to download tarball snapshots of tagged
releases[2].
Switching to point to github instead of their server would make building the packages far more reliable, and using the tarball snapshots would additionally speed source retrieval. Thoughts? [1] https://github.com/linuxdeepin [2] https://github.com/linuxdeepin/deepin-wm/releases |

This is just a request because these packages aren't building as is for Arch Linux ARM due to cr.deepin.io being basically useless, and it jams up the builders for hours until git inevitably times out. With the current sources, I'll just end up dropping the entire suite of packages since it's not worth the time and resources.
