Fork is not a heroku command

Question

I'm trying to change my Heroku app region by following this official guide: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/app-migration.

The problem is that, when I try to fork it at the very beginning using: heroku fork --from sourceapp --to targetapp --region eu.

Heroku cli returns:

 !    fork is not a heroku command.
 !    Perhaps you meant info
 !    Run heroku help for a list of available commands.

I'm using the latest version of Heroku Cli 6.15.18-fdf2097 in Windows 10

Why they think not to mention this if review-apps doesn't work for your use case is beyond my comprehension. – Loaves

The suggested replacement is review-apps but the only way to get those working is by using GitHub as your source control...? 😐 – Piping

super annoying that this is necessary. Heroku used to be so easy to use. – Kalfas
