Jan Høydahl commented on LUCENE-9488:
-------------------------------------

That's a good question. Should it be possible to download the source release of 
Lucene, unzip it and then do a new gradle assemble, without being on a git 
checkout. Probably not.

The structure of the 8.10 source package is identical to the {{lucene/}} sub 
folder of the {{lucene-solr}} git repo. And that works for ant/ivy since it is 
self contained. But on main, the lucene sub folder is not self contained, the 
user needs some build files from the root folder in order to run gradle, 
including help files. If we want to start packaging the entire git repo 
including {{dev-tools}}, then git archive may be the easiest way out. But 
perhaps we should clean up the duplicated README and LICENSE files before that?

One way is perhaps to move all text files from {{lucene/}} to top level and 
rename the {{lucene/}} folder as {{modules/}} ?

> The release process needs to reflect using Gradle rather than Ant. I suspect
