What happens when you duplicate a file? Does it track history back to the original parent? Can it help with future merges?

You mean copy the file? There is a bk cp command that copies the file and gives it a new rootkey. But from that point on the history of the two files diverge.

    Yeah, copy. I see, thanks.
