-----------------------------------

             Summary: more artifact inconsistencies
                 Key: LUCENE-4681
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4681
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: general/build
            Reporter: Robert Muir


Currently the tasks for releasing can easily create artifacts that are inconsistent with each other:
* the source releases (package-tgz-src) targets trigger an svn checkout to ensure the source release has no local modifications or extra files (even svn:ignore'd).
* the binary releases (and maven source/javadoc/binary artifacts too?) unfortunately are not built from this source release, which can differ than the local version.
* users who want to make their own release have to run special source targets (package-local-src-tgz) to make source tgs built from their actual checkout.

I think this can be safer and simpler.

Instead of these special source targets: imagine a prepare-release and a prepare-release-local (or swap it around and have prepare-official-release and prepare-release, i actually like that better, but it doesnt matter).

prepare-official-release would just do an svn:checkout and subant "prepare-release" from that checkout.

this way we know all artifacts are from the same consistent source.
