Forge contacts an Atlassian service to register the specified app, sets the owner to the Atlassian accountId that is running the register command, and updates the manifest with a new app ID.
If the app has already been registered with Atlassian due to previously running forge create or forge register, running forge register again updates the manifest with a new app ID for your app and sets your account as the owner of the app with that ID. It does not affect the earlier registration of the app.
If you run register multiple times for an existing app, the app will be disconnected from all environments, stored variables, provider client secrets, and storage associated with the previous app IDs and environments. Doing this is only advisable for a very limited set of use cases, such as an app under development that has not been deployed to multiple environments yet.
