 =head1 DESCRIPTION
 
 public-inbox-xcpdb is similar to L<copydatabase(1)> for
 upgrading to the latest database format supported by Xapian
 (e.g. "glass" or "honey"), but is designed to tolerate and
-recover from Xapian database modifications from
-L<public-inbox-watch(1)> or L<public-inbox-mda(1)>.
+accept parallel Xapian database modifications from
+L<public-inbox-watch(1)>, L<public-inbox-mda(1)>,
+L<public-inbox-learn(1)>, and L<public-inbox-index(1)>.
+
+This command is rarely used, as Xapian DB formats rarely
+change.
 
 =head1 OPTIONS

-=item --compact
+=item --all

+Copy all inboxes configured in ~/.public-inbox/config.

 In addition to performing the copy operation, run L<xapian-compact(1)>
 on each Xapian shard after copying but before finalizing it.

+
+Do not use L<public-inbox-purge(1)> or L<public-inbox-edit(1)>

+Normal invocations L<public-inbox-index(1)> can safely run
