From the man pages:
Code:
   f dump_file    Use dump_file instead of /dev/rmt/0  as  the
                     file  to  restore  from. Typically dump_file
                     specifies  a  tape  or  diskette  drive.  If
                     dump_file  is  specified  as `-', ufsrestore
                     reads from the standard input.  This  allows
                     ufsdump(1M)  and  ufsrestore to be used in a
                     pipeline to copy a file system:

                     example# ufsdump 0f - /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s7 \
                      | (cd /home;ufsrestore xf -)

Its all there...

NOTMUCH-DUMP(1) 					      General Commands Manual						   NOTMUCH-DUMP(1)

NAME
notmuch-dump - Creates a plain-text dump of the tags of each message. SYNOPSIS
notmuch dump [ <filename> ] [--] [ <search-term>...] DESCRIPTION
Dump tags for messages matching the given search terms. Output is to the given filename, if any, or to stdout. Note that using the filename argument is deprecated. These tags are the only data in the notmuch database that can't be recreated from the messages themselves. The output of notmuch dump is therefore the only critical thing to backup (and much more friendly to incremental backup than the native database files.) With no search terms, a dump of all messages in the database will be generated. A "--" argument instructs notmuch that the remaining argu- ments are search terms. See notmuch-search-terms(7) for details of the supported syntax for <search-terms>. SEE ALSO
