Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-1232:
--------------------------------------------
That's a good point; because version seeds with System.currentTimeMillis() it
increases even when you create a new index.
OK I think we should just leave version as is for now.
> Use segments generation instead of version

> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Index
> Affects Versions: 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.3.1
> Reporter: Michael McCandless
> Assignee: Michael McCandless
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.4

> Right now the segments file stores generation, a long starting with 0
> that increments by 1 with each commit, and version, a long starting
> with System.currentTimeMillis() that also increments by 1 with each
> commit.
> I think they are redundant so we can replace all methods/uses of
> version with generation instead.
> Spinoff from LUCENE-1228.
