sync to pull production data down to a local context for development, or to promote content between environments.
sync database
Copy the Drupal database from a source context to a target context. This backs up the database on the source, transfers the artifact, and imports it into the target. The command asks for confirmation before importing. Pass--yolo to skip the prompt
in automation.
Use --fresh to always take a new backup rather than reusing one from today.
