Feature Requirement: port to MAC OS #140

SSHFS works well on MAC with help of osxfuse. Is it possible to port fuse-overlayfs to MAC OS ?

an alternative that seems to work on Darwin is rpodgorny/unionfs-fuse

Any news around this request ?

christian-korneck commented 3 years ago

another possible alternative for Mac: There seems work going on for a native MacOS snapshotter in containerd using sparse bundle disk images.

MAC OS support is out of scope for fuse-overlayfs since there are many assumptions all over the code that is running on Linux.

If anyone is interested to work on it though, I'll happily review the patches
