Hi,

It would be better to not rely on a GitHub specific SVN API. We can use git with --depth=1 for clones and updates (I added this to kicad-library-utils download_pretty_libs.py script recently). AFAIK, 3d modules take up the most space, so a shallow (depth=1) clone of (all) the symbol and footprint libraries could be acceptable.
