What is the current behavior?
Document on FormApi.initialize
and FormApi.reset
are confusing readers.
For example, if I want to reset a form to a new state, while keeping dirty values as them are. Should I use initialize
or reset
?
Do these apis couple with FormProps.keepDirtyOnReinitialize
. If yes, why do we have The form will be pristine after this call
in the description of FormApi.initialize
?
Am I correct if I consider initialize
is reset
with forcing keepDirtyOnReinitialize
being false
?
If I am, why does the docs say All the values will be set to these values, and dirty and pristine will be calculated by performing a shallow-equals between the current values and the values last initialized with
? Since, if this call forces resetting all fields, dirty
and pristine
are always false
and true
, respectively. Is calculated
word redundant in this context?
What is the expected behavior?

Other information
Another question, what will happen if I call reset
twice as followed?
///initialValues is `undefined`
reset({foo: 'bar'})
reset() // will this reset the form to `undefined` or {foo: 'bar'}
Why does the parameter of initialize
is required, while initialValues
option of the config object is optional? Is there any way to set initialValues
to undefined via initialize
?
