The follow part of the bcachefs manual, looks to try to describe a way, which offer the migration of ZFS to bcachefs.**

       -f fs   Root of filesystem to migrate

       --encrypted
               Enable whole filesystem encryption (chacha20/poly1305)

       --no_passphrase
               Don't encrypt master encryption key

       -F      Force, even if metadata file already exists

bcachefs migrate-superblock [options] device Create default superblock after migrating

       -d device
               Device to create superblock for

       -o offset
