./filesystems/fuse-sshfs, File system client based on the SFTP protocol

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 3.7.5nb1, Package name: fuse-sshfs-3.7.5nb1, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

This is a filesystem client based on the SSH File Transfer Protocol.
Since most SSH servers already support this protocol it is very easy to
set up: i.e. on the server side there's nothing to do. On the client
side mounting the filesystem is as easy as logging into the server with
ssh.

The idea of sshfs was taken from the SSHFS filesystem distributed with
LUFS. There were some limitations in that codebase, and this
implementation features:

- Based on FUSE
- Multithreading
- Large reads (max 64k)
- Caching directory contents
- Reconnect on failure

Log message:
fuse-sshfs: switch to a maintained fork

From the github page:

This is a currently maintained fork of SSHFS

SSHFS (original repo: https://github.com/libfuse/sshfs) has been
declared to be unmaintained and it breaks our heart. So me and some
friends have decided to fork it and give it some love.

Changes:
About 35 commits since the last release.

Release 3.7.3 (2022-05-26)
--------------------------

* Minor bugfixes.

* This is the last release from the current maintainer. SSHFS is now no longer \ 
maintained
  or developed. Github issue tracking and pull requests have therefore been \ 
disabled. The
  mailing list (see below) is still available for use.

  If you would like to take over this project, you are welcome to do so. Please \ 
fork it
  and develop the fork for a while. Once there has been 6 months of reasonable \ 
activity,
  please contact [email protected] and I'll be happy to give you ownership of this
  repository or replace with a pointer to the fork.
