Post Refresh Request enables an instance in an environment to be refreshed to its original state after that instance has been cloned from another environment.   Post Refresh will identify all the projects that are different in the Source environment Instance combination verses the target environment Instance combination.  If a project is a partial deploy project, it will also determine which files are different between the source and target.  If there are files that are different, a package with be built that contain only those files.  Then the original project versions (or the newly rebuilt package for partial deploy) from the target environment will be redeployed to target environment. If the project was only deployed to the target environment, then it will be deployed again.

This is needed when an EBS environment such as development is cloned from production.  Once the clone is complete, you can initiate the Post Refresh requests for the target environment.  Any changes that you have in that development environment that may have been lost because of the clone in the development environment will be redeployed. 

Info
