Yonik Seeley commented on LUCENE-3607:
--------------------------------------

I think we should maintain the current behavior (at least Solr depends somewhat 
on it in the replication code), but allow one to override this behavior by 
specifying a version on new index creation somehow.

                
> Lucene Index files can not be reproduced faithfully (due to timestamps 
> embedded)

>             Project: Lucene - Java
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: core/index
>    Affects Versions: 2.9.1
>         Environment: Eclipse 3.7
>            Reporter: Martin Oberhuber

> Eclipse 3.7 uses Lucene 2.9.1 for indexing online help content. A 
> pre-generated help index can be shipped together with online content. As per
>    [[https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=364979 ]]
> it turns out that the help index can not be faithfully reproduced during a 
> build, because there are timestamps embedded in the index files, and the 
> "NameCounter" field in segments_2 contains different contents on every build.
> Not being able to faithfully reproduce the index from identical source bits 
> undermines trust in the index (and software delivery) being correct.
> I'm wondering whether this is a known issue and/or has been addressed in a 
> newer Lucene version already ?
