Hello, this issue is not relevant to these client libraries, so I'll be closing it out.

As a brief response to your question though, the refresh token is intended to be used to refresh your access tokens indefinitely, and there are in fact a finite number that your account may have active at any given time. In that sense, stepping through the OAuth 2.0 process to generate new refresh tokens frequently is essentially the opposite of how they are intended to be used.

If other libraries / languages are producing a new refresh token every time you refresh the access token, I would suggest that they are probably (incorrectly) stepping through the authorization step rather than simply refreshing the access token as intended.
