I don't understand the btrfs send -c <clone-src> man page text, or really even 
the use case. In part this is what it says:

> You must not specify clone sources unless you

If the snapshots are the same on both sides, then why would I be using clone in 
the first place?

> -c <clone-src> Use this snapshot as a clone source for an 
> incremental send (multiple allowed)

Incremental send implies the sender and receiver are not in the same state now, 
but will be after the command is executed. Is one, or both, snapshots rw for -c?

Anyway, I'm lost on the specifics, but clearly I'm even lost when it comes to 
the basic difference between -p and -c.
