Verified with m1rc2 distribution. The following is present in the Installation and Setup document.

Troubleshooting
I Can't Decompress the .tar.gz File 

Note: The .tar.gz distribution files are created using Ant's <tar> task (http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/tar.html). This generates .tar files that can only be decompressed using a compatible tar utility.

Known compatible utilities include: 

GNU tar 1.14 (http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/html_mono/tar.html) 
WinZip 8.0 
Ant's <untar> task (http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/unzip.html)

> The distribution contains files with pathnames longer than 100 characters. In that case, the filenames must be archived in USTAR format, which isn't supported by Ant's tar-task by default (org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Tar). "build.dist.zip" works fine.
