    Initialize a new repository and working directory that shares its

    history with another repository.

    .. note::

       using rollback or extensions that destroy/modify history (mq,

       rebase, etc.) can cause considerable confusion with shared

       clones. In particular, if two shared clones are both updated to

       the same changeset, and one of them destroys that changeset

       with rollback, the other clone will suddenly stop working: all

       operations will fail with "abort: working directory has unknown

       parent". The only known workaround is to use debugsetparents on

       the broken clone to reset it to a changeset that still exists

       (e.g. tip).
