When you publish your rules in a kjar, they're published to a Maven repository. That's what the "kie repository" is -- the Maven repository with the your rules init. The release id is the artifact id.

The logic you're looking at is how to pull a kjar from a Maven repository and deploy the rules from it.

Alternatively, you could keep your DRL files (or XLSX decision tables, or what not) locally and not bother with either the repository or release id.
