Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-5992:
--------------------------------------------
If we add the format byte then we could move read/write back into Version.java
and keep the ctor private ... I think I like that option.
> Version should not be encoded as a String in the index

> The version is really "just" 3 (maybe 4) ints under-the-hood, but today we
> write it as a String which then requires spooky string tokenization/parsing
> when we open the index. I think it should be encoded directly as ints.
> In LUCENE-5952 I had tried to make this change, but it was controversial, and
> got booted.
> Then in LUCENE-5969, I tried again, but that issue has morphed (nicely!) into
> fixing all sorts of things *except* these three ints.
> Maybe 3rd time's a charm ;)
