I have a folder hierarchy, where each subfolder contains documents A/B A/C A/D and where only the contents of D have been indexed. Now I would like to index the whole content of A. I wanted to avoid re-indexing the documents in D, so I thought about doing a merge. At the same time, I wouldn't like to lose the index I already had. Thus I am trying to merge without deleting the original index.
