Forks
A fork is a copy-on-write clone of a source bucket: it starts out sharing the
source's data and only diverges as you write to it, so creating one is cheap
regardless of the source's size. Use --source-snapshot to fork from a specific
snapshot rather than the source's current state.
Once you have a fork you can keep it in sync with, or promote it back to, its source:
buckets rebase— update a fork with the latest changes from its sourcebuckets merge— merge a fork's changes back into its sourcebuckets list --forks-of— list the forks of a bucket
