I think it addresses the issues Marius wrote about, so I went ahead and
applied them.

This is not great.  Did you try building against vanilla libfuse?

Anyway, thank you!

Hi,

the attached patch series adds mergerfs, an union file system, and
associated tools mergerfs-tools. I’ve been running it for a while now
and it seems to be stable. Unfortunately I’m not able to mount it in the
system configuration via

(file-system
 (device "/storage/disk*")
 (mount-point "/storage/pool")
 (type "mergerfs")
 (flags '('allow_other, 'use_ino, "moveonenospc=true", "category.create=mfs"))
 (check? #f))

because device is a pattern and not an actual file system path.

Cheers,
Lars
