Yes, because myfolder is a starting point (recursion root) and (if myfolder is a normal folder), it will be backed up normally and also everything below it. |

Hello, I think I did. What do you think may still be not needed? Best regards, |

You commented some code. Some other comments still refer to stuff in the code that is not executed any more. Hmm, I see comments are gone now. Maybe a caching issue or you removed them while I read it. |

It works fine if you don't explicitly back up the symlink "./test". Since you back it up, but it doesn't point to a valid filesystem object, I'm not sure where you expect the file test/backup/folder/valid to appear in the mounted filesystem... |

So, this is somehow similar to the issue I linked above. Except that we maybe can get a better/simpler reproducer script here, esp. if we get rid of unneeded stuff. |

Hello, indeed I had removed some comment in the test-script above. But it was just comments. @jdchristensen The files that I am missing in the fuse-mount are:
And I think the reason is rather clear: in the mount, there is the symlink "test" that points to "nowhere". There cannot be at the same time the folder "test" containing the subfolders that I have backed up. In fact, I see another reason why borg mount should hide dead symlinks: /mnt/Drive --> /mnt/drive-dev-by-id-2394p234234 And in fact I was not even aware anymore that /mnt/Drive was a symlink.

Hello,
I know that borg does not resolve symlinks.
But what about this:
Will myfolder be backed up? I think it should, but I think it does not...
Best regards,
