Refresh parameter of Index API

[Kirill_Teplinskiy]

Hello!

I found some inconsistency in the description of the refresh parameter of Index API:

• elastic.co/guide v2.3 says it refreshes only the shard not the whole index.
• <summary> of the field IndexDescriptor.Refresh (NEST v2.4) says it refreshes the whole index
• REST API spec v2.3.5 says it refreshed the whole index

So does refresh parameter refresh the whole index on ES 2.3.5 or only the shard?

Good catch. It refreshes only the shard.
@Martijn_Laarman can you update the NEST docs?

The REST API spec has been fixed in master:

Wait for changes to be visible by search

That summarry is generated from the rest spec so we need to back port it to 2.x

@forloop or @gmarz can you guys take this while I'm on vacation?

[forloop (Russ Cam)]

submitted a PR for the rest api spec with a patch of the description in NEST 2.x.
