I think they don't want to split the firmware:

So I forked the repo and removed the unneeded files from git history:
https://github.com/openwrt-es/raspberrypi-firmware
Now the downloaded files are ~4MB:
Here's another solution:
We tag releases on a forked repository and we upload tar files to Github with
only the files we need:
https://github.com/openwrt-es/raspberrypi-firmware/releases/tag/20150213
This way the downloaded files are ~4MB:
