Description-en: Mount MTP devices over FUSE
Go-mtpfs is a simple FUSE filesystem for mounting Android devices as
an MTP device.
.
It will expose all storage areas of a device in the mount, and only
reads file metadata as needed, making it mount quickly. It uses Android
extensions to read/write partial data, so manipulating large files
requires no extra space in /tmp.
