rulesets subdirectory missing from published NetAnalyzers nupkg

[gt-dbechtold]

Describe the bug

"rulesets" subdirectory (and contents) are missing from published Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.NetAnalyzers packages for versions 10.*.

To Reproduce

• Go to https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.NetAnalyzers/10.0.203, click "Open in NuGet Package Explorer" and look at the file list. There is no "rulesets" subdirectory.
• You can also download the .nupkg file, extract it, and verify this on your local machine.

I looked through many different 10.x versions of the nuget package, but did not see the "rulesets" subdirectory. On the other hand, I see the "rulesets" subdirectory in the 9.0.0 package version.

Although the "rulesets" directory is not present in the published NuGet package, the "rulesets" directory exists when I build the NuGet package locally on Windows using Visual Studio 2026:

• Clone this dotnet/sdk repository.
• Check out branch release/10.0.2xx.
• Open src\Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.NetAnalyzers\Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.NetAnalyzers.slnx in Visual Studio (I used VS 2026 18.4.3).
• Change solution configuration to "Release".
• Right click on Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.NetAnalyzers.Package project and select Pack. Wait for packing to complete.
• Using File Explorer, go look in "Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.NetAnalyzers.10.0.202-dev.nupkg" archive under artifacts\packages\Release\Shipping directory on disk (relative to repository root directory).
• The "rulesets" subdirectory exists here. Why isn't it in the NuGet package published on nuget.org??

Remarks

I maintain an application that makes use of the ruleset files, so I am dismayed to find them missing.

bad bot, this isn't nuget-related.
