docs/production-to-rc-data-cloning.md, which still described a Heroku-era Concourse pipeline for database replication. Production and RC databases now live in EKS behind Vault dynamic secrets, not reachable directly over the network, so the old pipeline could never connect regardless of credentials.fly set-pipeline/heroku config:getapproach with ephemeralkubectlpods in each cluster, chunked transfer to work around the EKS auth token's fixed ~15 minute session limit, and a verify-before-combine step so a dropped chunk can't silently corrupt the restore.backpopulate_pipelinesahead ofmass_publish(was in Step 4). Cloned sites inherit apublish_datefrom production, whichpublish_websitetreats as "pipeline already exists," so publishing before creating RC's own per-site pipelines fails every previously-published site withCould not find live build <id>. Also fixed themass_publishexample command, which was missing its requiredversionargument.How can this be tested?
