Description Slawomir Wojciech Wojtczak 2018-02-27 14:40:30 UTC
https://github.com/0x09/hfsfuse

Created for use on FreeBSD which lacks a native driver, but also functions as an alternative to the kernel drivers on Linux and macOS.

This driver is read-only and cannot write to or damage the target filesystem in any way.

No patch/shar attachment.

Please note that this project contains several bundled libraries that are already present in the ports system. Port versions should be used instead of the bundled versions.

Log:
  New port: sysutils/fusefs-hfsfuse

  FUSE driver for HFS+ based on NetBSD's kernel driver with
  modifications.

  This driver is read-only and cannot write to or damage the target
  filesystem in any way.

  hfsfuse also includes a standalone tool, hfsdump, to inspect the
  contents of an HFS+ volume without FUSE.

Added the port.  In the future please don't create clickbait bug titles and
make it clear in the title that this is a request to create a new port and not
a submission of one.  Thank you.

(In reply to Tobias Kortkamp from comment #3)

My apologize.

It was not my intention to create 'click bait'.

It wanted to specify that it should be relatively easy/fast to create such port as it was FreeBSD focused, so I used the '[NEW PORT] sysutils/hfsfuse' title, what title should I use then to not create 'click bait'?

I also thought that this will be useful for FreeBSD developers as they often use Macs for their laptops/desktops, so importing HFS data would be handy.

Regards.
