LiFTeR: Changes for apfs-fuse
- May 31, 2023: apfs-fuse-20230103-1.{fc35,fc36,el7,el8,amzn2}.x86_64.rpm and apfs-fuse-20230103-1.el9.{x86_64,aarch64}.rpm -
APFS-Fuse is a read-only FUSE driver for the new Apple File System.
Since Apple didn't yet document the disk format of APFS, this driver should be considered experimental.
It may not be able to read all files, it may return wrong data, or it may simply crash.
Use at your own risk.
But since it's read-only, at least the data on your apfs drive should be safe.
Be aware that not all compression methods are supported yet (only the ones the author has encountered so far). Thus, the driver may return compressed files instead of uncompressed ones.
