     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-185?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Maximillian Dornseif updated COUCHDB-185:
-----------------------------------------

    Attachment: group-drop-warning.patch

This is a crude implementation of logging a message when group=true is set on map-only views.

> If you query a view without a reduce() function and pass group=true the group parameter is ignored. This does certainly not follow the principle of least astonishment.
> One might argue, that requesting grouping on something without reduce is generally an error and thus should result in an HTTP error, but this might break to much existing code.
> But at least the fact, that the parameter was ignored should be logged.
