Not exactly sure how to do what you're recommending -- are you suggesting I go ahead with using rsync to bring in each snapshot, but to bring it into to a clone of the old set of snapshots? Is there another way to bring my recent stuff in to the clone?
If so, then as for the storage savings, I learned a long time ago that rsync --inplace --no-whole-file has the same effect - it makes sure to only touch blocks that changed, so in theory I ought to be able to rsync over my snapshots intelligently without wasting any more space than they took up to begin with. Not sure if that's what you meant.
