I'm on Tumbleweed.

Does zypper dup reload the current status of my repositories with newer packages, or do I have to run zypper ref first?

Or is that what the man page means by "auto-refresh", and in that case, how do I configure that?

The info I found online is conflicting. Wiki says zypper dup is enough, but it also says I get a notification about new packages, which I don't. I'm guessing that's only valid for Leap, but not sure about this either.

Thanks. Only 'zypper dup' is enough. It triggers the refresh of the repos.

a) it is possible to globally disable automatic refresh b) automatic refresh is suppressed for refresh interval (I think 10 minutes by default), so not every invocation of "zypper dup" will do it. It is possible to hit mirror update in this interval.
