I have implemented "timeshift-aware parents" in the [action-cp branch](https://github.com/digint/btrbk/commits/action-cp). Like action "archive", `btrbk cp` does not need any configuration (but takes some global config into account, like ssh_user etc.). Try...

I will need to refactor `btrbk archive` for this. I started working on this a while ago, but it's not finished yet... Sorry for the late reply, was very busy...
