I did the same question recently and just tried it. Backport actually 
change a parent version from which you track changes. It seems that is 
useful if you change repositories often or (as I use it) to publish 
first on local cache, test it, then  backport to last SqueakSource 
version and then finally publish new version there. It is similar to 
Reconcile  with a database on VW's Store.

Best regards
