You're right that "Update" is a little misleading as a name.
Solr uses that term across the board to refer to new or updated docs.
The "add-documents" API is /solr/collection_name/update and is
implemented by "UpdateRequestHandlers". You can configure Solr to
massage documents before indexing with a "UpdateRequestDocumentChain".
etc.
So the name is misleading, but at least it's consistent.
Best,
Jason
