Description

Thanks to LUCENE-5898 there are many less places to increment version. However, I still think this script can be useful in automating the entire process (minus the commit). This would:

• Add new sections to lucene/CHANGES.txt and solr/CHANGES.txt
• Add new version constant
• Change LATEST value
• Change version.base in lucene/version.properties
• Change version used in solr example configs
• Create a BWC index and test if necessary
