@maid@shitposter.world @kaia@pleroma.soykaf.com Seed and cutover is very often used to transfer a ton of data, Terrabytes, Think /var/lib some times /opt or the entire /home partition. You do an initial transfer while everything is live, then shut down the services and do the cutover which only transfers the files that changed from then. If you dont do that as root, you can run into permission problems but that said, its bad practice to do that for files that don't need root access so fair point. In this case it has the same end result, you get the folder it is just done as a privileged user on the source system

@maid@shitposter.world @kaia@pleroma.soykaf.com You could just do cp -Rv but that does not support every protocol, i dont know how you want to receive it, you could do tar -cvf tomboys.tar TOMBOYS/ to make a tar archive without compression and just send that, fast and easy
