Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-4746:
-------------------------------------

A few more problems, it wont work with MDW correctly unless we deal with stale 
file maps (or MDW knows that linking is happening).

We also need to look into what this is about, maybe its solved in the JDK:

BUGS
       On NFS filesystems, the return code may be wrong in case the NFS server 
performs the link creation and dies before it can say so.  Use  stat(2)  to  
find
       out if the link got created.

> I'd like to make a move method for directory.
> We already have a move for Solr in DirectoryFactory, but it seems it belongs 
> at the directory level really.
> The default impl can do a copy and delete, but most implementations will be 
> able to optimize to a rename.
> Besides the move we do for Solr (to move a replicated index into place), it 
> would also be useful for another feature I'd like to add - the ability to 
> merge an index with moves rather than copies. In some cases, you don't 
> need/want to copy all the files and could just rename/move them.
