@msokolov @mikemccand What is your recommendation on this for minor version upgrades? Lucene does not support writes on the old codec format for minor versions as well, but I can potentially override the codec to use the old writer in my application. Since Lucene has not tested IndexWriter with the old codec format, it can potentially result in unknown bugs. The challenge for Opensearch is that it stores the data in remote store, so upgrades are not seamless if we do not build the forward compatibility in Opensearch for old codec versions, so even minor version upgrades for Lucene become tricky. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
