Hi,

There are 4 things I’m not sure about re:send/receive.

1) Is it possible to first copy things on a file system using rsync and then 
use send-receive ? And to subsequently mix rsync and send-receive ? Provided 
that snapshots are made accordingly.

2) Is possible to “send" a snapshot diff to disk and then “receive" it from the 
said disk into a remote filesystem ? I have two very large and physically 
distant btrfs filesystems. It would be more economical to juste dump snapshot 
diffs to disk for transport instead of the network.

3) How are “conflicts” handled by send-receive if at all ?

4) If a file is created, modified and then deleted in-between two snapshots is 
it ignored by send/receive or does send/receive "re-enacts” the journal exactly 
?

Thanks,

Vincent--
