### Soft fork history
Before rebasing on top of Gitea, all branches are copied to `soft-fork/YYYY-MM-DD/<branch>` for safekeeping.
Before rebasing on top of Gitea, all branches are copied to `soft-fork/YYYY-MM-DD/<branch>` for safekeeping. Older `soft-fork/*/<branch>` branches are converted into references under the same name. Similar to how pull requests store their head, they do not clutter the list of branches but can be retrieved if needed with `git fetch +refs/soft-fork/*:refs/soft-fork/*`. Tooling to automate this archival process [is available](https://codeberg.org/forgejo-contrib/soft-fork-tools/src/branch/master/README.md#archive-branches).
