I know this question was asked, oh, a year ago, and the answer was "No." But I'm wondering if anything's changed in the interim. Specifically, shy of "dd", is there any way to back up the files and metadata on a btrfs partition?

Thanks!

btrfs send is a work in progress, currently there are problems in tree traversal that are being worked on
