Hi All,

I am upgrading from solr 4 to 6.
In solr 4 I have a schema.xml that is under version control.
But solr 6 has the notion of a managed schema that could be modified via a
solr api call.
This seems great and flexible, but my assumption is that in this case
zookeeper becomes the authoritative copy and not SVN or Git.

And this is where things become unclear to me.
Is the expectation to download the configuration from zk the same way we do
an svn checkout to have the configuration and run locally?
How do we know who changed what and when?

I know that there still is the option to use schema.xml by using
the ClassicIndexSchemaFactory but I am curious to hear from y'all that use
managed schema how you are doing it and if there are any downside, gotchas,
or if all is just much better :-)

Seems to me that running locally is harder as you cannot just checkout a
project that contains the up to date schema.

Thank you,
Rachid.
