If you want a particular set of documents from the source index you’ll need to use sort. If possible, prefer a more
selective query to maxDocs and sort.

also change the document's metadata. The following example illustrates that.

You can use `sort` in conjunction with `max_docs` to select the documents you want to reindex.
Sorting makes the scroll less efficient but in some contexts it's worth it.

<1> `_reindex` defaults to sorting by `_doc` so `random_score` will not have any
effect unless you override the sort to `_score`.
<1> You may need to adjust the `min_score` depending on the relative amount of
data extracted from source.

ranges to partition data in separate reindex runs.
