The documentation (codecs package summary), however, claims the following: "When this file is present, a writer is currently modifying the index (adding or removing documents)." (see https://lucene.apache.org/core/6_0_1/core/org/apache/lucene/codecs/lucene60/package-summary.html ) which, judging from the code and the above post, is wrong, and perhaps could be corrected...?
