I don't remember seeing that pop-up, but Performing a Full Volume Clone via Apple Software Restore (Beta) is probably what you're looking for.

I'm actually one (unreleased) build ahead of you with CCC 5.1.15b1 (5891), which enables bootable clones of your boot volume in another volume in the same container if SIP is disabled.

Talk about fast? A Full Clone clone of my ~25 GB boot volume takes ~1 minute 5 seconds whereas a Copy All Files clone takes ~3 minutes 55 seconds! (And incremental updates sound like lightning!) smile
