Got it.

So, we can "guess" by removing the repository manager URL from the front

of the repository URL in the user POM.

not sure I understand here..

The other alternative - what about if we stored it in metadata in the
root of the repository?

So you request:
http://localhost:8080/releases/maven-metadata.xml

And it has:

repository.manager.url = http://localhost:8080/ (for requesting the index)

repository.manager.id = releases
somewhere in it.

Would that be the best solution?

yes, that would be a workable solution to get the index-repository id
mapping done and also to have a standard method of retrieving the url
for download of repository index.
