### Is there an existing issue for this? - [x] I have searched the existing issues ### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe the problem. Just like #1169 but for the client side of things. We need an async Task-based API for doing replication client operations to avoid synchronous HTTP code that can deadlock or cause other issues. ### Describe the solution you'd like Note that `IReplicationHandler` can remain synchronous, since that calls into Lucene.NET APIs that do not have async equivalents at this time. We can make an async version of `IReplicator` (as a new `IAsyncReplicator` interface) for the calls that hit the replication server, and expose async methods on ReplicationClient that call those methods on `IAsyncReplicator`. As for whether or not this is all done in the same ReplicationClient class, or if it gets an i.e. `AsyncReplicationClient` version (with or without a refactored-out base class), is up for discussion. Additionally, HttpClientBase and HttpReplicator would need to be made async-ified, and HttpReplicator could implement `IAsyncReplicator` without needing a separate Async class in my opinion. ### Additional context This code is called by our new Lucene.Net.Extensions replicator client library, which is a work in progress for merging in the Google Summer of Code 2025 project work. cc @NehanPathan @NightOwl888 -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
