Steve Rowe commented on LUCENE-5685:
------------------------------------

Robert, I think it should be possible to just skip the crawler script step if 
you have a local copy.

bq. Or alternatively, perhaps we could just change the instructions on 
http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/PublishMavenArtifacts to work with a local 
copy of the release?

They already say that?  Feel free to fix if it's not clear:

bq. Download the Lucene/Solr Maven artifacts *_(if you don't already have 
them)_*

bq. The crawler script intentionally excludes certain file types, so I'm not 
sure what happens during the publishing if they are present, or if thats just a 
small optimization...

The crawler script excludes 
{{"\*.md5,\*.sha1,maven-metadata.xml\*,index.html\*"}} - {{\*.md5}}, 
{{\*.sha1}} and {{maven-metadata.xml\*}} files are excluded because these are 
re-generated by Maven Ant Tasks when it uploads artifacts to the staging 
repository, so they aren't needed; and {{index.html*}} are files auto-generated 
by the web server (and won't be present in a copy zipped up on the server).  In 
all cases, the excluded files are unnecessary, but their presence wouldn't 
actually cause trouble, because the artifact uploading process explicitly names 
all files to be uploaded.

> During the release process i always zip up and download the _entire_ voted on 
> RC folder locally, so I can commit the release artifacts. This is just the 
> simplest way to avoid mistakes.
> Maven publishing is a mystery to me, I just follow the instructions exactly 
> because I'm not totally sure what the directory structure should be that the 
> scripts expect. 
> Currently this means i have to do a large file transfer over the internet 
> again, because the crawl script wont work with a file:// url (the unzipped 
> contents of the release folder i just downloaded).
> It would be great if it could just use 'cp -r' or something for that, rather 
> than wget, to save another large transfer.
