My mistake. btrfs-replace is for replacing a whole disk as part
of a
BTRFS filesystem. In my case I have a vfat EFI partition, an
ext4 /boot
partition, and a BTRFS root+/home partition, so btrfs-replace
isn't
going to do it.

I just did this recently. I used "btrfs replace", which is part
of
btrfs-progs. See "man btrfs-replace" for details.
It initially refused for one of my partitions (forgot the exact
error
message) but it worked after I ran "btrfs balance".

I have a new NVMe drive and want to clone my existing SSD which
currently holds /, /home and a swapfile, all as subvolumes. I know I
can do this using btrfs-send/receive, but only one subvolume at a time
and with plenty of potential for fat-fingering it.
