David Smiley commented on SOLR-12420:
-------------------------------------

But I think I'd prefer a SolrVersion aligned version, so it's more clear if, as 
part of a Solr upgrade process, that we have upgraded a config file.  A 
(dirty?) trick I've done before is to use "999" in my schema version, and then 
document our upgrade process to check for schema interpretation changes and 
then adjust our schema accordingly.

> Propose removing schema version; use luceneMatchVersion instead

> I propose that the schema version be removed in lieu of using 
> luceneMatchVersion for this.  One less thing to manage (in code, need REST 
> API -- SOLR-7242, thing to document; etc.).  We don't need the fidelity to 
> differentiate from luceneMatchVersion.  We're already using 
> luceneMatchVersion for things instead of having a ton of additional version 
> numbers.  I can understand the point of putting a version number in in a 
> config file but I don't think we should continue this practice.
> To make this happen, if the luceneMatchVersion is >= 7.4 (the release which 
> we start doing this) then a non-existent schema version becomes equivalent to 
> the latest schema version.  Specifying the schema version becomes deprecated 
> but supported; we might log a warning. 
> In 8.0, strip schema version out altogether.
