Bugs
- Multithread support is broken for now, so forcing fuse to work single thread.
- there are no known bugs for read-only mode, read only mode should be ok for every one.
- although, write support is available please do not mount your filesystems with write support unless you do not have anything to loose.
Please send output the output of below command while reporting bugs as GitHub Issue. Before submitting a bug report, please look at the existing issues first.
