I think the script is already proving helpful, finding PRs whose corresponding issues were closed. I guess it is possible that some of those PRs might still be relevant, but likely most of them should be closed? This seems helpful. I spot checked a couple of these. One of them indeed looked like it was merged <https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/pull/1064>, so I closed it with a comment. But the second one I checked <https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/pull/906/files> looked like the src changes were merged but maybe the unit test in the PR failed to be merged <https://github.com/apache/lucene/commit/49631ace9f1ee110d52a207377e4926baef74929> ?
And the script can be used to bulk-add comments. I'm still +1 on that. But I really don't want to bulk-close all of the PRs. That just makes these artifacts harder to find in the future. Some of them are still relevant. I just poked around a bit and found this still-open PR from Simon <https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/pull/1925> which is/was a nice cleanup, from ~ one year ago now, of how DocumentsWriterPerThread tracks its (tricky!) lifecycle. There are important changes in these still-open PRs, so I really don't think we should close them. Maybe Simon or Nhat or myself comes back and cracks the rust off of this PR.
