Grab a snapshot of the assembly here, or build from sources:

git clone git://github.com/nicoulaj/jcrfs.git

Extract the assembly and add the bin/ folder to your PATH:

tar xvzf jcrfs-VERSION.tar.gz
export PATH=jcrfs-VERSION/bin:$PATH

Using

To mount a remote JCR on a folder, you can now use the mount.jcr command. Here is an example:
