It's misleading to suggest that source is always fetched as tarballs.

The OpenEmbedded build system works with source files located through
the :term:`SRC_URI` variable. When
you build something using BitBake, a big part of the operation is
-locating and downloading all the source tarballs. For images,
+locating and downloading all of the source. For images,
downloading all the source for various packages can take a significant
amount of time.

This is also present slightly below, in the same document. Can you replace that
occurence too?
Also I would suggest "all of the source code" instead of "all of the source".
