## Historique du projet et usages

fuse-overlayfs is a FUSE implementation of overlay-style filesystems for rootless containers. The official README describes it as an implementation of overlay and shiftfs in FUSE, with command-line options for lower, upper, work, merged, UID, and GID mappings.

### Historique du projet

The project lives under the containers organization and is written in Rust. Its README documents libfuse 3.2.1 or newer as a requirement and notes that use from a user namespace, such as rootless Podman, requires a Linux kernel at least 4.18.0.

### Historique d'adoption

fuse-overlayfs became part of the rootless-container storage story because many kernels prevent unprivileged users from mounting kernel overlay filesystems. The containers/storage manual documents `mount_program = "/usr/bin/fuse-overlayfs"` as the custom mount helper used when rootless storage cannot use kernel defaults.

The same containers/storage documentation names fuse-overlayfs in its `SEE ALSO` section and in examples involving permission masks, showing that it is treated as a normal component of the containers storage stack rather than a standalone experiment.

### Modes d'utilisation

Users can run fuse-overlayfs directly by passing overlay-style mount options such as `lowerdir`, `upperdir`, `workdir`, and a merged directory. Container engines more often invoke it indirectly through containers/storage configuration as a `mount_program`.

The project also distributes pre-built static binaries for multiple architectures through GitHub Releases, which makes it practical on container hosts where the binary is needed before normal package-manager integration is available.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

The package matters because it made overlay-style copy-on-write storage usable for rootless container workflows before all target kernels could provide equivalent unprivileged overlay support. It is a small package with outsized influence in Podman and OCI tooling because storage-driver details determine whether rootless containers feel native or second-class.

### Chronologie

- 2017: containers/storage documentation originates the shared storage configuration manual.
- v1.0.0: fuse-overlayfs reaches a stable tagged release line.
- Current README: project documents rootless Podman and Linux kernel requirements for user-namespace operation.

### Related projects

- fuse-overlayfs is closely related to containers/storage, which documents the `mount_program` setting.
- It is also related to Podman rootless operation, which relies on the containers configuration stack for user storage.
