FTA: “problem 1: webdav or NFS?

The two filesystems I could that were natively supported by Mac OS were WebDav and NFS. I couldn’t tell which would be easier to implement so I just tried both”

I might find out that it is incomplete, buggy or a nuisance to use, but FSKit (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/FSKit) would be my first choice.

macOS actually has an excellent SMB client, so the options actually are: WebDAV, NFS (3.0 and 4.0), SMB, FSKit.

By excellent do you mean bearable? macOS’s SMB stack is certainly not excellent.

Won't the SMB implementation be sufficient to mount git commits as folders?

		No, because SMB doesn't support execute permissions. So either all your files are executable or none of them are.

By bearable do you mean it exists? It's fucking shite.

		Which is why I'm so angry they're killing AFP. It works so much better and is super easy to set up a server for on a Linux

AFAIK, SMB doesn't support symbolic links.
