Describe the bug

There is a very strange bug where storage inside the test contract is not persisted between forks. I have created a minimal version of the bug here: https://github.com/hexonaut/fork-storage-issue

The readme explains things. I'm not sure why exactly it is happening, but it should be clear in the example what is wrong.

I'll paste the code here too just for easy reference:

pragma solidity ^0.8.13;

import {Test, console} from "forge-std/Test.sol";
import {StdChains} from "forge-std/StdChains.sol";

contract CounterTest is Test {
    struct Domain {
        StdChains.Chain chain;
        uint256 forkId;
    }

    struct Bridge {
        Domain source;
        Domain destination;
        uint256 someVal;
    }

    struct SomeStruct {
        Domain domain;
        Bridge[] bridges;
    }

    mapping(uint256 => SomeStruct) internal data;

    function setUp() public {
        StdChains.Chain memory chain1 = getChain("mainnet");
        StdChains.Chain memory chain2 = getChain("base");
        Domain memory domain1 = Domain(chain1, vm.createFork(chain1.rpcUrl, 22253716));
        Domain memory domain2 = Domain(chain2, vm.createFork(chain2.rpcUrl, 28839981));
        data[1].domain = domain1;
        data[2].domain = domain2;

        vm.selectFork(domain1.forkId);

        data[2].bridges.push(Bridge(domain1, domain2, 123));
        vm.selectFork(data[2].domain.forkId);
        vm.selectFork(data[1].domain.forkId);
        data[2].bridges.push(Bridge(domain1, domain2, 456));

        assertEq(data[2].bridges.length, 2);
    }

    function test_storage() public {
        // UNCOMMENT THIS TO FIX THE ASSERT BELOW
        // Why does this work?
        //assertEq(data[2].bridges.length, 2);

        vm.selectFork(data[2].domain.forkId);

        assertEq(data[2].bridges.length, 2);
    }
}
