Update a resource with associations in spring-data-rest

Let's say I have a AFolder class with name, description and a List<AFile> as an attribute. Now assume that I have created a AFolder object with its list of AFile populated. If I try to update using PUT/PATCH with something like {"name": "new name", "description": "new description"} then the list of AFile came back empty

How to resolve this problem?
