[Xapian-devel] Sent a pull request for the Tf-Idf Weighting scheme

[aarsh shah]

Hello guys :) I have sent a pull request for the Tf-Idf Weighting scheme
incorporating as many normalizations as I could with the help of statistics
currently available from Xapian::Weight . Please let me know what you'll
think about it.

I used the weighting scheme in a simple searcher and it did a fine job with
it. I have no experience with writing tests for features like this.Please
give me some guidance on how to write a test for a weighing scheme .I have
updated some documentation to incorporate the weighting scheme .Please do
let me know if I need to add more documentation for this scheme.

I don't know why but inspite of committing this patch on a separate branch
, it still contains commits of other branches and so the pull request I
have sent  also shows many previous commits.I searched on the net but still
can't understand why this is happening.Please can someone help with that ?

The commits for the TfIdf scheme are dated 25 February in the pull request.
A big thank you to the community for all their help. :)

-Regards
