Downloading large datasets can be a pain, especially when you only need a fraction of the data. So we built git xet mount, a file system mount solution using Rust and NFSv3.

Using NFSv3 means that there is no FUSE driver needed, and works out of the box on Linux, Mac and Windows (Pro required)!

Give it a try yourself! Get the client at https://xethub.com/assets/docs/getting-started/installation and run "git xet mount https://xethub.com/XetHub/Flickr30k.git" to immediately explore a 4.2GB collection of images!
