---------------------------------------
Summary: Only assign ScoreDoc#shardIndex if it was already
assigned to non default (-1) value
Key: LUCENE-7707
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7707
Project: Lucene - Core
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Simon Willnauer
Fix For: master (7.0), 6.5.0
When you use TopDocs.merge today it always overrides the ScoreDoc#shardIndex
value. The assumption that is made here is that all shard results are merges at
once which is not necessarily the case. If for instance incremental merge
phases are applied the shard index doesn't correspond to the index in the outer
TopDocs array. To make this a backwards compatible but yet non-controversial
change we could change the internals of TopDocs#merge to only assign this value
unless it's not been assigned before to a non-default (-1) value to allow
multiple or sparse top docs merging.
