Docs: inheritdoc is per member?

[JuanZamudioGBM]

For example with this interface:
/// <summary>
/// You may have some primary information about this interface.
/// </summary>
public interface ITestInterface
{
/// <summary>
/// Method documentation.
/// </summary>
void Method();
}

///<inheritdoc cref="ITestInterface"/>
public class TestClass : ITestInterface
{
public void Method()
{
{
}

Method in TestClass will inherit the documentation also or do I have to add another <nheritdoc /> in Method as well?

Can you provide the answer? Then, we can get this doc updated.

The method in TestClass will inherit the documentation also and dont need to add another inheritdoc tag.

[JuanZamudioGBM]

@mikadumont In that case there will be any changes in CS1591?

Right now if I remove the documentation from the method I get a warning,

The CS1591 warning would be related to https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/issues/40325
