It "just works".  I habitually use rsync for incremental updates across 
directories or systems, but tar is often more robust for this type of 
job, just because of things like needing to remember to use -H. Both 
rsync and cpio will work if used properly, just like tar.  Like I said, 
largely a matter of preference.
