David Smiley commented on LUCENE-8552:
--------------------------------------

I'm glad you wish to contribute Christophe!

The intent is merely to recognize that there might be nothing to merge (<= 1 
LeafReader).  No new FieldInfos (or FieldInfo) need to be created.   If zero 
LeafReaders then we can return FieldInfos.EMPTY -- a recent addition.

{{FieldInfos.Builder}} takes {{FieldInfo}} not {{FieldInfos}}; maybe this was a 
typo on your part.

I propose ignoring the 2nd part of my description concerning equals/hashCode.

> FieldInfos.getMergedFieldInfos could trivially return the FieldInfos of the 
> first and only LeafReader if there is only one LeafReader.
> Also... if there is more than one LeafReader, and if FieldInfos & FieldInfo 
> implemented equals() & hashCode() (including a cached hashCode), maybe we 
> could also call equals() iterating through the FieldInfos to see if we should 
> bother adding it to the FieldInfos.Builder?  Admittedly this is speculative; 
> may not be worth the bother.
