Copies a Mac OS X Time Machine volume (set of backups) from one location
to another, such as from one disk to another, or from one disk image to
another. This can be useful when block copying the disk is not feasible
(i.e. the destination disk is smaller than the original).
The location must be the root directory of the source Time
Machine volume, that which contains the 'Backups.backupdb' directory
(e.g. /Volumes/Backup, not /Volumes/Backup/Backups.backupdb/gojira).
You must have sufficient privileges to access this directory, and the
Time Machine volume must already be mounted (read-only mode is okay).
The location should be the root of an empty volume to which the
Time Machine backups will be copied. You must have sufficient privileges
to write to this location. Chances are you will need to be using `sudo`
to gain the necessary privileges, unless -n or --dry-run is given.
-h|--help
\tPrints this usage information.
-n|--dry-run
\tDo not make any changes on disk.
--nochown
\tDo not use chown to change the owner/group of the destination
\tfiles. Generally only root can do that, and on network volumes
\tthe Mac will make everything owned by the 'unknown' user anyway.
-v|--verbose
\tPrints information about what the script is doing at each step.
-x|--xattr
\tCopies the extended attributes from the source volume to the target
\tvolume, assuming that the target is an exact copy of the source.
\tThis is useful if you have a copy of a Time Machine volume that is
\tmissing the necessary extended attributes. Normally this script
\twill already have copied the extended attributes as part of the
\tcopying process, so this option is only needed when you have created
\tthe copy using some other means."""
