Swagger json format that works for codegen and redoc

I want swagger-codegen to generate a function Foo with two parameters of the same type. For example Foo(User first, User second). For this to work, both "first" and "second" have the same $ref point...

To add description to a $ref, you can wrap the $ref into allOf:

first:
  description: The first user
  allOf:
    - $ref: '#/definitions/User'

Thank you.

The description does work, however now the redoc does not recognize that the type of the first user is User and it is shown as type "object". 

The swagger-codegen generates a Request class with no users as oppesed to the attempt in the post
