Ryan McKinley commented on SOLR-653:
------------------------------------
using 'overwite=false' is a sure way to make a mess. As Chris put it in
http://www.nabble.com/Re%3A-Duplicate-content-p18535995.html

allowDups is one of those features where Solr not only gives you enough
rope to hang yourself, but Solr also ties the rope into a knot, cust some
lumber, and builds you a gallows -- but it's a feature if what you really
want to do is hang yourself.
{panel}
Yes -- by default, if you send a document with the same uniqueKey, it will be
overwritten. If you turn off the duplicate detection, it will put the document
into the index, but will likely explode down the line -- many things assume the
uniqueKey is in fact unique.
Note -- this patch does not remove the functionality from solr, it only removes
the ability to ask for it via solrj
> remove "overwrite" command from solrj API
