NAME
bup-fuse - mount a bup repository as a filesystem
SYNOPSIS
bup fuse [-d] [-f] [-o] <mountpoint>
DESCRIPTION
bup fuse opens a bup repository and exports it as a fuse(7) userspace
filesystem.
This feature is only available on systems (such as Linux) which support
FUSE.
WARNING: bup fuse is still experimental and does not enforce any file
permissions! All files will be readable by all users.
When you’re done accessing the mounted fuse filesystem, you should un-
mount it with umount(8).
OPTIONS
-d, --debug
run in the foreground and print FUSE debug information for each
request.
-f, --foreground
run in the foreground and exit only when the filesystem is un-
mounted.
-o, --allow-other
permit other users to access the filesystem. Necessary for ex-
porting the filesystem via Samba, for example.
--meta report some of the original metadata (when available) for the
mounted paths (currently the uid, gid, mode, and timestamps).
Without this, only generic values will be presented. This option
is not yet enabled by default because it may negatively affect
performance, and note that any timestamps before 1970-01-01 UTC
(i.e. before the Unix epoch) will be presented as 1970-01-01 UTC.
-v, --verbose
increase verbosity (can be used more than once).
EXAMPLES
rm -rf /tmp/buptest
mkdir /tmp/buptest
sudo bup fuse -d /tmp/buptest
ls /tmp/buptest/*/latest
...
umount /tmp/buptest
