Description Oliver Kurz 2019-01-11 13:25:00 UTC
## Observation

Repositories added from .repo files are not set to auto-refresh but the help and man page tells otherwise.

Simple test to try out yourself:

```
docker run -it --rm opensuse/tumbleweed sh -c 'zypper ar https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/tools:/scm/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:tools:scm.repo ; zypper lr' | grep -B 2 'devel_tools_scm'
```

showing

```
# | Alias           | Name                                                    | Enabled | GPG Check | Refresh
--+-----------------+---------------------------------------------------------+---------+-----------+--------
1 | devel_tools_scm | Software configuration management (openSUSE_Tumbleweed) | Yes     | ( p) Yes  | No     
```

whereas `zypper ar --help` says "-f, --refresh               Enable auto-refresh of the repository. Default: true" and the man page (on openSUSE Leap 15.0) says:

```
Newly added repositories have auto-refresh disabled by default (except for repositories imported from a .repo, having the auto-refresh enabled)
```

## Problem

Documentation and implementation inconsistency
Comment 1 Michael Andres 2019-01-17 13:42:31 UTC
Good catch. Looks like `help ar` shows the wrong default (true). 
Same for `keep-packages`. 

Both defaults are `false`, the implementation is right.
