Description

Hi. I currently use snapper and it is set (by default) in ```/home/.snapshots``` and ```/.snapshots``` for **snapshots**. I would like to use **btrbk** to make copies of snapshots **ALREADY PRESENT** (```/home/.snapshots``` and ```/.snapshots```) on another external drive /media/LastBackup (aka. **btrfs-send**). Is it possible to use btrbk this way?

Research direction

Start by reviewing btrbk's configuration entry point for the existing snapshot paths /home/.snapshots and /.snapshots, then trace how it handles btrfs-send to /media/LastBackup. Done means documenting whether already-present Snapper snapshots can be copied and, if so, the required configuration.
