Hello,

Is there a way to clone/replicate a standalone collection. I know the
Cloud API does it but I want the replica to not be
synchronized/updated after the copy is done. And I don't know Cloud
API code enough to know what the consequences are.

The specific scenario is for creating tutorial collections. I want to
run a sequence of commands against the repository and - at specific
points - clone off the progress-to-date to a new collection. Then,
individual check-points exist in parallel with separate names.
Alternatively, I can start with X number of collection replicas and
drop them off one by one. But then, how do I query them separately?

This creation process will be happening offline and single-threaded,
so any reasonable approach would accepted. I can even run in cloud
mode, as long as the "separate after copy" requirement is maintained.

My worst case scenarios are probably just re-rolling the sequence from
the beginning against each new collection with a bit more script each
time. Or, closing a core, doing physical copy and reopening. So, I am
hoping for something better.

Regards,
   Alex.
