FWIW I don't agree with this advice.  "cp -a" works perfectly well and
I think that's a valuable thing.

On the other hand, if you want to _back up_ or sneakernet a git repo,
I agree that "git bundle create /path/to/backup.bundle --all" is
better.

Perhaps the user manual could explain this somewhere.

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
