I think the point is that, short of using some of the replication stuff
from pre-2.3 in CVS, there's no proper way of doing a hot backup.  All
of the snapshotting techniques (whether filesystem snapshots, rsync or
otherwise) require a little bit of downtime to complete, but are
employed *specifically* to minimize downtime.
