Building a single Gargoyle package

So Instead of compiling the whole firmware from scratch while Im testing, was thinking of just compiling the gargoyle package. Running into issues with missing dependancies which I can't seem to find or if I do, doesn't compile properly.
Is there any way for my to compile just the "gargoyle" package? Will save me tons of time. Only issue I see is that overwriting the package via the plugins menu could run into issues.

once you have completed 1 FULL_BUILD=true, re-running make will only update packages. this makes it significantly quicker, but its not 5 minutes.

Yes, this is what I currently do. This is inefficient. I would like to only build that single package. Shouldn't take more than 2 minutes.

I have (almost) completed a rejig of the build script to do just exactly this. Unfortunately a couple of weeks ago I ran into a problem that I never quite resolved, and never got back to it.
Actually the little project itself was an accident. I ran into problems trying to get Gargoyle to autobuild on travis-ci which required me to first understand and then improve the build script.
The unfinished/broken code is here just in case you are in the mood for fixing stuff

svn is deprecated. Use GIT

Played with it some more, got farther not complete.
If OpenWrt has a way to build specific packages, why doesn't Gargoyle? Kinda confused why this isn't already built in?

If you are messing around with my code (above) then sorry - I forgot to mention that @Lantis had corrected the svn / git stuff in the std build script after my work on it. I should have time to work a bit more on it in a couple of days. I would be keen to see your changes to save rework.
