Mark Desira commented on SOLR-2898:
-----------------------------------

Hi I am new to SOLR and was looking for (what seems to be) the function/patch 
in question.

My scenario is this:

ID      ProductName                     ProductCategory         Colour
---------------------------------------------------
1       BatmanTShirt            T-Shirt                         Black
2       BatmanTShirt            T-Shirt                         Blu
3       SupermanTShirt          T-Shirt                         Blue
4       SpidermanTrousers       Trousers                        Red
5       SpidermanTrousers       Trousers                        Black

If I use the usual faceting (on ProductCategory) in SOLR, I would get the 
following results:

T-Shirt (3)
Trousers (2)

However what I want the facets to look like is the following:

T-Shirt (2)
Trousers (1)

Meaning that I don't want the colour to generate (3) counts for T-Shirt and (2) 
counts for Trousers.
I know that I can 'normalize' the document to hold multi-valued field for the 
colours however that would complicate my system a bit because I have other 
fields (such as 'Price' and 'Size') to include in the multi-valued field.

What I would like to do is to sort of GROUP BY ProductName and ProductCategory, 
this would 'flatten' the rows to just 3; (2) for T-Shirt and (1) for Trousers; 
and then I apply the facet, resulting in what I require.

>From what I'm understanding, this patch would work great for me am I right?
If so, could you point me to some tutorial on how can I apply this patch?

Thanks.
