-# This helper script makes it easy to use a passwd or group file to map
-# values in a LOCAL transfer. For instance, if you mount a backup that
-# does not have the same passwd setup as the local machine, you can do
-# a copy FROM the backup area as follows and get the differing ID values
-# mapped just like a remote transfer FROM the backed-up machine would do:
-#
-# rsync -av --usermap=`mapfrom /mnt/backup/etc/passwd` \
-# --groupmap=`mapfrom /mnt/backup/etc/group` \
-# /mnt/backup/some/src/ /some/dest/
