+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.sp
+borgfs [options] REPOSITORY_OR_ARCHIVE MOUNTPOINT [PATH...]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.sp
+This command mounts an archive as a FUSE filesystem. This can be useful for
+browsing an archive or restoring individual files. Unless the \fB\-\-foreground\fP
+option is given the command will run in the background until the filesystem
+is \fBumounted\fP\&.
+.sp
+The command \fBborgfs\fP provides a wrapper for \fBborg mount\fP\&. This can also be
+used in fstab entries:
+\fB/path/to/repo /mnt/point fuse.borgfs defaults,noauto 0 0\fP
+.sp
+To allow a regular user to use fstab entries, add the \fBuser\fP option:
+\fB/path/to/repo /mnt/point fuse.borgfs defaults,noauto,user 0 0\fP
+.sp
+For mount options, see the fuse(8) manual page. Additional mount options
+supported by borg:
+.INDENT 0.0
+.IP \(bu 2
+versions: when used with a repository mount, this gives a merged, versioned
+view of the files in the archives. EXPERIMENTAL, layout may change in future.
+.IP \(bu 2
+allow_damaged_files: by default damaged files (where missing chunks were
+replaced with runs of zeros by borg check \fB\-\-repair\fP) are not readable and
+return EIO (I/O error). Set this option to read such files.
+.UNINDENT
+.sp
+The BORG_MOUNT_DATA_CACHE_ENTRIES environment variable is meant for advanced users
+to tweak the performance. It sets the number of cached data chunks; additional
+memory usage can be up to ~8 MiB times this number. The default is the number
+of CPU cores.
+.sp
+When the daemonized process receives a signal or crashes, it does not unmount.
+Unmounting in these cases could cause an active rsync or similar process
+to unintentionally delete data.
+.sp
+When running in the foreground ^C/SIGINT unmounts cleanly, but other
+signals or crashes do not.
