Presslabs' GitFS hasn't seen an update since 2019, and latest git commit is from 2021.

How about switching to vtemian's fork that is being actively developed and maintained?

pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'six==1.12.0' distribution was not found and is required by gitfs

The current version of six on ArchLinux is 1.14.0.

When installing and running this for the first time, this is what I get:

$ gitfs -h
[ exception ]
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'raven==5.27.0' distribution was not found and is required by gitfs

@nikvdp: Do you have SSH working? Only HTTPS works for me.

Also the version check of the python-six dependency needs to be altered from == to >= version

Here's a patch that fixes things: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/5cb46d5f4fbf3e226c5a23c0b3282ab1 This adds python-raven to the dependencies and makes python-setuptools a dependency as opposed to a makedependency since this is a runtime dependency for some weird reason with gitfs complaining about `ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pkg_resources'`. I also patched the requirements.txt file making fusepy,pygit2 and raven use newer packages (>= instead of ==). It's unclear if gitfs needs specific versions of these modules for some reason. In my testing I can mount git repos no problem whatsoever but there may be some weird edge cases. It's probably worth asking upstream if gitfs requires specific versions of the aforementioned modules and if so, why.

0.4.1-1 is the first ever aur release of gitfs that I was able to get working! Great work. I still had some issues so I created a wiki page here with some tips and tricks for the problems I encountered: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Gitfs Maybe it will help someone in the future.
