+.BR --no-snapshot
+With this option conversion tool will not use snapshot (COW storage) for conversion
+in your $TMPDIR filesystem and it will directly manipulate with VDO device in-place.
+Warning: the snapshot usage makes the whole conversion transactional and
+the snapshot can be just simply merged once the whole conversion
+has successfully proceeded. In the case of error the snapshot is just removed.
+Without the use of snapshot there is higher risk of problems with recoverability in
+case some unexpected error occurs.
