This port features a fuse implementation of bindfs. Bindfs is like nullfs exept
for the fact that it features more options and filters. The most important
difference is that you may overwrite the ownership of files when mounting the
desired directory somewhere else.
Reason:
Bindfs defaults to use direct I/O since version 1.16. While this results
in major performance improvements as well as several bug fixes, this also
breaks direct legacy calls to mmap. If your application still uses them
consider these two options:
1. Mount using `--no-direct-io`
2. Upgrade your application in order to query mapping guards
Port Moves
port moved to filesystems/bindfs on 2024-11-06 REASON: Moved to new category filesystems
filesystems: add new category for file systems and related utilities
The filesystems category houses file systems and file system utilities.
It is added mainly to turn the sysutils/fusefs-* pseudo-category into
a proper one, but is also useful for the sundry of other file systems
related ports found in the tree.
Ports that seem like they belong there are moved to the new category.
Two ports, sysutils/fusefs-funionfs and sysutils/fusefs-fusepak are
not moved as they currently don't fetch and don't have TIMESTAMP set
in their distinfo, but that is required to be able to push a rename
of the port by the pre-receive hook.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
