Hoss Man commented on SOLR-1331:
--------------------------------

Is the thinking here that we just expose SOLR-1051 type functionality at the 
core level w/o using file paths -- in which case the caller is responsible for 
knowing whether or not the index merging makes logical sense; or are we talking 
about a more user friendly concept of core merging where we sanity check that 
the schemas are the same -- or even more complex: merge the schemas if they 
don't have any conflicts (ie: all field/type names in common have identical 
declarations?)

the first seems easy and essentially syntactic sugar on top of what was already 
implemented in SOLR-1051 (get core by name; get index dir from core; merge) but 
since Shalin opened a new issue for this, i suspect he's got something bigger 
in mind.

> There should be a provision to merge one core with another. It should be 
> possible to create a core, add documents to it and then just merge it into 
> the main core which is serving requests. This way, the user will not need to 
> know the filesystem as it is needed for SOLR-1051
