clean-mount

A read-only FUSE filesystem that mirrors a directory while hiding files matched by .gitignore.

Make ignored files appear nonexistent to ls, find, zip, tar, rsync, editors, and AI agents.


clean-mount mounts a read-only FUSE filesystem over any directory. Files and directories matched by .gitignore rules are invisible — they return ENOENT as if they never existed. Nested .gitignore files are respected.
