Description

tmfs  creates  a  read-only  virtual filesystem which helps you to read your Apple Time Machine backup by
       reconstructing the hard-linked directories from the HFS+ metadata directory.

       You can browse the mounted time-machine-mount normally and recover data from any backup point.

       tmfs must be run as the root user, but the mounted time-machine-mount can be accessed by any user,  based
       upon the options passed to FUSE. See OPTIONS below.

Examples

       mkdir /mnt/hfs /mnt/tm
       mount /dev/sdXX /mnt/hfs
       tmfs /mnt/hfs /mnt/tm -ouid=$(id -u $USER),gid=$(id -g $USER),allow_other

Name

       tmfs - Time Machine File System

Options

hfs-root-mount
              The path to the mount point of your HFS+ Time Machine volume.
              You must mount the Time Machine device prior to running tmfs.  See the EXAMPLES section below.

       time-machine-mount
              The path where the Time Machine will be mounted.  This should be an empty directory.

       fuseoptions
              A  comma  separated  list  of  options  that will be passed to fuse(8).  See fuse(8) for available
              options. To be able to access the volume under a normal user account you should set the  uid,  gid
              and allow_other options.
