Can brig write directly after I mount to the folder in the mac? #110

Open ljoez opened 3 years ago

Here was the process of the CLI: MacPr BM % brig mount BM --root /mac MacPr BM % open .

The system can open and read the files I added before, but when I copy new files into the mounting folder, the system showed me "there is no enough space for me to copy!" when I edit the file in the mounting folder, the system showed me "it can not be saved!"

but when I use CLI , both of them works well: MacPr BM % cp -r /Users/***/newfile .
MacPr BM % nano README.md

Can brig work well like the normal system? something like the vedio below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXkTEBdM6aA

thanks.

Currently, mounting is tested and polished only with Linux.

The problem is that none of the developers has access to Mac, so we cannot test the Mac OS specific code there. The fuse layer which is in charge of mounting is based on external library bazil-fuse. Its author mentioned a lot of difficulties to make it operational with Macs to the point of refusing to support Macs.
