I've found one approach that works. Posting it here in case someone else needs it.
If there is a simpler method, do let me know. Use "./gradlew clean releaseTarGz -x test" to build a tarball with my changes Take the generated tarball in core/build/distributions, expand it and run it. Set KAFKA_DEBUG env var to true before running it In intellij, use Run->Attach to Process It connects and I am able to set breakpoints and step through.
