What
Forking a conversation has a second implementation that copies the source records forward in bounded batches through the newer storage layer, and deletes the half-written fork if anything fails partway. It runs only when the session's history is held in that backend.
Details
Carries over edited and moved records, and inherits a withheld-history marker as a fork_inherit record.
Distinct errors for a conversation that cannot be read and one that is too long to branch.
Evidence
Conversation too long to branch through storage
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
