BorgBackup Homebrew tap
Why install Borg using this tap vs brew install borgbackup?
The borgbackup-fuse formula maintained in this tap depends on macFUSE and llfuse which are required to mount repositories or archives using borg mount.
These dependencies have been removed from Homebrew’s borgbackup formula because FUSE for macOS is no longer open source.
If one doesn’t plan on using borg mount, installing Borg using brew install borgbackup works just fine.
