Missing formula: sshfs about homebrew-fuse HOT 6 CLOSED

I started work on the necessary infrastructure to support macOS FUSE formulae, back when it was announced that all such formulae would be deprecated. Pretty much everything needed is in place, and now that all such formulae have been disabled in core, I'll begin migrating them into my own FUSE tap for all to use: https://github.com/gromgit/homebrew-fuse

That said, I'm just one guy who got deluged by a flood of unexpected responsibilities, so PRs to my tap are always welcome. Otherwise, leave an issue there and I'll get around to it as soon as I can.

I also wonder whether it would be possible to compile libfuse for macOS: https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/libfuse

It might be possible, but getting it to do useful things on macOS requires kernel extensions that libfuse neither has nor supports. That's why their own README states:

Supported Platforms

• Linux (fully)
• BSD (mostly/best-effort)
• For OS-X, please use OSXFUSE

I installed sshfs a few hours ago. Works fine.

@gromgit: I never thought you would come up with a solution so quickly. Just great! Thanks a lot!

It worked perfectly this time, thank you!

And no worries regarding the old dependency, it's already better to receive minor version updates from your tap than nothing from core. Maybe a future macFUSE update will allow using branch 3 of sshfs, so at least now there's a way forward when this happens.

As for sshfs itself, I've confirmed that v2.10 is the last version that can be built with the latest MacFUSE, since that only supports FUSE API v2. Give it a shot and let me know if something breaks.

I just tried, but it didn't work. Here is the error I got:

I took care to uninstall sshfs I had from core before running this command, so I don't know what went wrong. I tried again after uninstallin afuse I had from core, thinking maybe it's best to get the dependencies from the same tap (since the error message mentioned afuse), but I got the same error when I retried.

Sorry, I checked in some typos in a different formula. Please brew update and try again.
