bindfs is a FUSE filesystem for mounting a directory to another location,
|
|
similar to 'mount --bind' in Linux or nullfs in BSD. The permissions of
|
|
the mirrored directory can be altered in various ways.
|
|
|
|
Some things bindfs can be used for:
|
|
- Making a directory read-only.
|
|
- Making all executables non-executable.
|
|
- Sharing a directory with a list of users (or groups).
|
|
- Modifying permission bits using rules with chmod-like syntax.
|
|
- Changing the permissions with which files are created.
|
|
|
|
Non-root users can use almost all features, but most interesting
|
|
use-cases need user_allow_other to be defined in /etc/fuse.conf
