Where is it mentioned how not to keep downloading the tar files? for

The automatic download saves manually downloading 70 or so individual dependencies; you can
argue that it sucks (and it does) - but doing that manually sucks more =)
A build for a newcomer has to be run three or four times? Why should the tar files get
downloaded four times? How does a newcomer turn it off after the first download? Tor had to
explain that to me.
There is no need to "turn it off". The tarballs are only downloaded
_once_. It has always been that way. If it does not work for you, there
is something seriously wrong on your end.
