Description

See: SOLR-13952. PLEASE do not do much work on this (other than familiarizing yourself with it) until the branches mentioned SOLR-13952 get created (one to separate out the non-gradle changes and gradle_9 for the gradle-only changes). Or at least ping me (Erick Erickson) before doing any serious work so we can coordinate. I hope to have the branches created by Nov 24 or so.

I'm going to push the Gradle build up to master this weekend, probably tonight (UTC-5).

Let's add sub-JIRAs to this one so we can divide-and-conquer. Please add anything you already know about and anything that comes up.

Reference (and update), the intro page here:

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SOLR/Intro+to+the+Gradle+build

To get your feet wet:

build-and-test: ./gradlew build

build-only: ./gradlew build -x test

That about exhausts my knowledge of the process, we all get to learn.
