Mark Miller commented on SOLR-236:
----------------------------------
bq. This is a huge difference. Considering the no:of involvement of the
non-committers involved in this issue.
Its not really any different than putting it in trunk. Non committers can still
post patches to the branch in JIRA, the same as if the issue was in trunk.
Smaller, more focused patches. If there are no benefits to a branch in this
regard, what is the argument to putting this in trunk for further dev? Might as
well just stay in patch form until its ready then.
bq. If your patch does not modify any existing files you never have to sync it
w/ trunk. It is always synced.
You have to apply the patch. With a branch you have to type a merge command.
Its the same effort - a single command.

> This patch include a new feature called "Field collapsing".
> "Used in order to collapse a group of results with similar value for a given
> field to a single entry in the result set. Site collapsing is a special case
> of this, where all results for a given web site is collapsed into one or two
> entries in the result set, typically with an associated "more documents from
> this site" link. See also Duplicate detection."
> http://www.fastsearch.com/glossary.aspx?m=48&amid=299
> The implementation add 3 new query parameters (SolrParams):
> "collapse.field" to choose the field used to group results
> "collapse.type" normal (default value) or adjacent
> "collapse.max" to select how many continuous results are allowed before
> collapsing
> TODO (in progress):
> - More documentation (on source code)
> - Test cases
> Two patches:
> - "field_collapsing.patch" for current development version
> - "field_collapsing_1.1.0.patch" for Solr-1.1.0
> P.S.: Feedback and misspelling correction are welcome ;-)
