NAME
tmfs - Time Machine File System
SYNOPSIS
tmfs hfs-root-mount time-machine-mount [fuse options...]
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.
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. fuse options 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.
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
