Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-5500:
-------------------------------------
Note you will get an exception today: but not until the actual merge. The idea
here is to fail when you configure the thing on indexwriter!
> SortingMergePolicy should error if the Sort refers to the score

> It should throw an exception if Sort.needsScores() == true. This does not
> make sense at index-time.
> I think there is no reason for this method to be package-private either (as
> its just useful sugar, it loops over each SortField and checks needsScores).
