Research direction
Start by reading the existing --update-fields implementation and the command entry points, then compare its behavior with jf sync. Trace how local commit messages and GitHub information are represented. Done means a sync subcommand updates local commit messages from GitHub as the inverse of --update-fields, with the intended behavior verified.
