1. **copy-out mode** - Create a backup (archive). You can enable this mode through the `-o` or `--create` options. In this mode, you must generate a list of files with a specific command (`find`, `ls` or `cat`) and pass it to cpio.

* `find` : browses a tree, recursive or not;
* `ls` : lists a directory, recursive or not;
* `cat` : reads a file containing the trees or files to be saved.
* `find` : browses a tree, recursive or not. Supports both absolute path and relative path file lists.
* `ls` : lists a directory, recursive or not. Only supports file lists with relative paths.
* `cat` : reads a file containing the trees or files to be saved. The content of the file read by the `cat` command is the file list, with one line representing one file. Only supports file lists with absolute paths.

!!! Note

`ls` cannot be used with `-l` (details) or `-R` (recursive).
The `ls` command cannot type any additional options or manipulate objects.

It requires a simple list of names.
