Delete Branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Sync mode that allows us to specify a block height to which the node will sync using fast sync mode. After this point it pivots to full sync (archival or not) (and can begin statediffing). This could alternatively be done using snap sync, but it would not be possible to snap sync to block heights below the network snapshot retention level (or before snapshotting was implemented). Fast sync requires a copy of the entire state and storage tries on the network at the targeted block height, for block heights below the state retention level of full nodes it will rely on archival peers. In worst case scenario we can peer directly with our archive node.
