Qsys - Clock Source vs Clock Bridge

Hello, What is the difference between a Qsys Clock Source and a Clock Bridge ? When should we use a Clock Source ? When should we use a Clock Bridge ?

You can use a Clock Bridge to export a clock signal out of your system, and you can use a Clock Source with an associated reset.

Other than that (just bringing a clock into your system), they can be used interchangeably.
