Track total hits: support by integer?

[kzzzzo2]

An exception occurred when setting an integer to track_total_hits.

The doc is written as set track_total_hits as an integer.

Is there a way to set an integer?

@jimczi Could you look?

Thanks for testing the alpha2 release!
This feature has been added after the release of 7.0.0-alpha2 so it is currently only in the master branch.
and will be available in the next 7.0 release, the docs wrongly refer to 7.0.0-alpha2 but it contains new features that are only in master:

Add the ability to set the number of hits to track accurately

Thanks @jimczi @dadoonet
Looking forward to the next 7.0 release
