💖 XDD-SYNC(1) 💖

ok bestie, welcome to the xdd-sync page, part of the xNVMe manual, section 1 (that's "user commands", iykyk). sit down, grab a strawberry, we're doing filesystem things 🍓✨

✨ NAME ✨

xdd-sync — copy --data-nbytes from --data-input to --data--output

yes. that's literally it. that's the whole vibe. it copies stuff. no cap. 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

xdd sync [<args>]

the subcommand is sync, the args are optional-ish, and the brackets are doing their little bracket thing. slay.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

ok so here's the tea, bestie: xdd-sync copies --data-nbytes worth of bytes from --data-input to --data--output.

that's it. that's the main character energy of this entire manpage. you point it at a thing, you point it at another thing, you tell it how much to move, and it moves. iconic behaviour honestly. 🌈

🔥 REQUIRED 🔥

these are not optional. these are the non-negotiables. the rules, periodt. if you skip one, don't come crying to me 😭

  • --data-input FILE — the path to your data input-file. where the bytes come from. the source. the origin story. 💖
  • --data-output FILE — the path to your data output-file. where the bytes go. the destination. the glow-up. ✨
  • --data-nbytes NUM — the data size, in bytes. this is how much you're moving. it's giving "how much". numbers only, bestie, no vibes-based estimates. 🔢

💅 OPTIONAL 💅

these ones are optional — the square brackets said so — but they're cute and you should look at them.

  • [ --iosize NUM ] — use the given NUM as bs/iosize. that's your block size / I/O size situation. pick your number, live your truth. 🌸
  • [ --direct ] — bypass layers. yeah. straight through. no detours, no middlemen, just direct. main character energy fr fr. 💀
  • [ --offset NUM ] — use the given NUM as offset. so you can start partway in instead of at the very beginning. we love a little skip ahead. 🧚
  • [ --help ] — show usage / help. when in doubt, ask for help. that's growth. that's self-care. 🫶

shoutout to Simon, absolute legend, ate and left no crumbs. 🙈

ok quick reminder bestie: keep every option exactly as written, --data--output has that double dash in the middle and that is not a typo on my part, that is literally how the original says it. copy-paste with love. 💖

and that's the page!! 🎀 this was xNVMe's XDD-SYNC(1), dated 09 September 2024, source and version xNVMe — bye bestie, go move some bytes, you're gonna do amazing 🌈💖✨
