Forces a depth-first traversal of the directory hierarchy.
The main value of this is that a later restore using cpio
can handle read-only diretories properly, since they'll
not be made read-only until all their files are in place.

>Also the man page for find doesn't describe -depth either.

Whose manual? I think it's in the current one from AT&T.
