Q about terminology: bitbake "fetch" vs "fetchall"

From: Robert P. J. Day <hidden>

  need some advice about terminology -- for the sake of describing
this accurately, what is a good way to describe the packages
downloaded by:

  $ bitbake -c fetch
  $ bitbake -c fetchall

  for a simple "fetch", i get only this in my downloads/ directory:

autoconf-2.69.tar.gz
automake-1.12.5.tar.gz
gnu-config-20120814.tar.bz2
libtool-2.4.2.tar.gz
m4-1.4.16.tar.gz
pkg-config-0.25.tar.gz
pseudo-1.4.1.tar.bz2
quilt-0.60.tar.gz
sqlite-autoconf-3071401.tar.gz

while a "fetchall", of course, should fetch everything needed for the
build of my selected recipe/image.

  so what word/phrase can i use to describe what is downloaded by a
simple "fetch"?  for the sake of docs/tutorial, of course.
