I'm receiving the following error: when trying to run the following command: sudo zfs send -wR -i "tank/service/gitea#backup-2024-01-14" "tank/service/gitea@backup-2024-02-06" \
| pv | ssh backup zfs receive -Fu "backup/gitea"I'm not sure why, as I only have the target snapshot present, so there shouldn't be multiple snapshots being sent: $ zfs list -t snapshot tank/service/gitea

It says in the message that you cannot do that, and why. The man page says: note how -R and -I are not included in the one that can take bookmarks. Conceptually, one could implement support for -I or -R with bookmarks, but nobody has. Feel free to doso if you need it, otherwise I'd suggest just sending one and then -R -i from that one to the rest, if you need it. (I'd also generally discourage using -R, because it tries to do "all in one" but it turns out there's a lot of really gross edge cases that you can't handle automatically, so you'd end up needing a lot of tooling to very complicatedly handle cleanup if anything goes wrong...) |

Would -Lec be a suitable replacement for -R if I don’t care about intermediate snapshots being sent and don’t have any child datasets? (I would like to add -b as well but that doesn’t seem to be possible with bookmarks it seems. Not critical for me but would be nice) |

-Lec is implied by -w. |
