Summary : FUSE and libmtp based filesystem for accessing MTP devices
URL : https://github.com/JasonFerrara/jmtpfs/
License : GPLv3
Description : jmtpfs is a FUSE and libmtp based filesystem for accessing MTP (Media
: Transfer Protocol) devices. It was specifically designed for exchanging
: files between Linux systems and newer Android devices that support MTP
: but not USB Mass Storage.
:
: The goal is to create a well behaved filesystem, allowing tools like
: find and rsync to work as expected. MTP file types are set automatically
: based on file type detection using libmagic. Setting the file appears to
: be necessary for some Android apps, like Gallery, to be able to find and
: use the files.
:
: Since it is meant as an Android file transfer utility, the playlists and
: other non-file based data are not supported.
