  • Yes, in an imaginary world where everything is in the top level that would definitely be a problem.

  • Yes, it’s great when you need to stop and resume. For data migrations between Macs I typically use…

    caffeinate sudo rsync -vaEP

    The flags are:

    • v increases verbosity.
    • a applies archive settings to mirror the source files exactly, including symbolic links and permissions.
    • E copies extended attributes and resource forks (macOS only).
    • P progress provides a count down and transfer statistics during the copy.

  • Yes, I use a similar method but with rsync opposed to scp. rsync retains permissions so no need to chown the home directory afterwards. Also since rsync is truly a sync and not a copy if users need to use an old system a bit more when you run it again it quickly moves over only what has changed since last time the command was ran.

  • Backup your home folder. Format and install desired macOS version. Restore your home folder. It’s works just as it always has with this method. (I do internal Mac support for a large university)
