On the other hand, nobody should "prepare a release" from the source package,
so perhaps the failure is ok, and we should disable the Ant target?

After re-thinking, if you want to 'build a release' from the source package,
how will it know where to get the stuff to do the svn export without a revision
number (for the source distribution). So I think we should figure out to make
the thing fail, but then fix LUCENE-3166 :)

> Key: LUCENE-3165
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3165
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: general/build
> Reporter: Shai Erera
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 3.3, 4.0

>
> While checking 3.2 RC2 artifacts, I ran "ant prepare-release" and it failed
> because "get-svn-info" failed (since this is not a svn checkout). This makes
> sense indeed, but still annoying, so question is how to overcome it? It
> attempts to execute "svn info" as part of "package-tgz-src". When you run the
> latter to prepare the release, you want it to fail if "svn" does not exist,
> however in the source package there's no '.svn' so it cannot succeed.

> I don't know how to solve it yet, so I'm marking it as a Blocker for 3.3, so
> that we at least revisit it before then.
