I was reading this blog post about Lucene transactions (thank you to Mike for writing this): http://blog.mikemccandless.com/2012/03/transactional-lucene.html
I'm interested in the part that references distributed transactions and says: "if Lucene completed its 2nd phase commit but the database's 2nd phase hit some error or crash or power loss, you can easily rollback Lucene's commit by opening an IndexWriter on the prior commit. " I see that you can pass in an IndexWriterConfig with an IndexCommit which will tell the IndexWriter where to open from... What is the best way to get access to the prior IndexCommit? It looks like you could open a StandardDirectoryReader and then call getIndexCommit(), but I wasn't sure if there was a better or easier way using some information that is already in the existing IndexWriter.
