This should close the old handle and reopen it (see [2]). It does what the comments indicate it should do - aug_load will throw away everything under /files and /augeas/files and reread all files it was told about from the filesystem. It's essentially a refresh of the tree with any changes that might have happened in the filesystem. You can do more with it, e.g., change what files should be read by changing entries in /augeas/load, but it doesn't seem that you'd want to do this here.
