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
