** >  fossil branch new BRANCH-NAME BASIS ?OPTIONS?
**
**        Create a new branch BRANCH-NAME off of check-in BASIS.
**
**        Options:
**          --private             Branch is private (i.e., remains local)
**          --bgcolor COLOR       Use COLOR instead of automatic background
**                                ("auto" lets Fossil choose it automatically,
**                                even for private branches)
**          --nosign              Do not sign contents on this branch
**          --date-override DATE  DATE to use instead of 'now'
**          --user-override USER  USER to use instead of the current default
**
**        DATE may be "now" or "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.SSS". If in
**        year-month-day form, it may be truncated, the "T" may be
**        replaced by a space, and it may also name a timezone offset

**    --allow-empty              Allow a commit with no changes
**    --allow-fork               Allow the commit to fork
**    --allow-older              Allow a commit older than its ancestor
**    --baseline                 Use a baseline manifest in the commit process
**    --bgcolor COLOR            Apply COLOR to this one check-in only
**    --branch NEW-BRANCH-NAME   Check in to this new branch
**    --branchcolor COLOR        Apply given COLOR to the branch
**                                 ("auto" lets Fossil choose it automatically,
**                                  even for private branches)
**    --close                    Close the branch being committed
**    --date-override DATETIME   DATE to use instead of 'now'
**    --delta                    Use a delta manifest in the commit process
**    --hash                     Verify file status using hashing rather
**                               than relying on file mtimes
**    --ignore-clock-skew        If a clock skew is detected, ignore it and
**                               behave as if the user had entered 'yes' to
