Description

sshfs publishes its mounts as type fuse.sshfs. It would be cool if arv-mount published its mounts as fuse.arvados or something else recognizable by default, so they're easier to find and manipulate with mount -t and other Unix tools.

Currently, arv-mount uses "fuse" by default, and has a "--subtype FOO" option that changes it to "fuse.FOO" (see note-2 below). Suggested change:
  • default to "fuse.arvados"
  • allow changing to just "fuse" by passing --subtype "" (in case someone needs to get back to the old behavior for some reason)
