             Summary: The way IndexWriter carries over previous generations is 
fragile
                 Key: LUCENE-8423
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8423
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Adrien Grand


IndexWriter won't carry over generation numbers if 
SegmentInfos#readLatestCommit fails with an IOException, even though the 
intention is to not carry over only if the index doesn't exist. I don't think 
it causes too many issues today since a number of IOExceptions like corruptions 
would be propagated by IndexFileDeleter later on, but we should still make it 
more robust?
