-r Rebuild instead of just building
-e Use get_externals.bat to fetch external sources
Up to 9 MSBuild switches can also be passed, though they must be passed
after specifying any of the above switches. For example, use:
build.bat -e -d /m
to do a concurrent debug build with externals fetched as needed. If
the MSBuild switch requires an equal sign ("="), the entire switch must
be quoted:
build.bat -e -d "/p:externalsDir=P:\cpython-externals"
There may also be other situations where quotes are necessary.
