NAME
       gvfsd - Main daemon for gvfs

SYNOPSIS

       gvfsd [OPTION...]

DESCRIPTION
       gvfsd is the main daemon for the gvfs virtual filesystem. It provides the org.gtk.vfs.Daemon name on the session bus.
       gvfsd is autostarted by GIO clients if it is not running.

       The primary task of gvfsd is to act as a mount tracker/manager. It spawns new backends when requested and keeps track
       of their lifecycle, maintaining a list of active mounts and creates direct connections to them.

       Since gvfs backends are running as children of the gvfsd process, it is possible to start gvfsd in a terminal and set
       environment variables to get debug output from individual backends.

       gvfsd also starts the gvfsd-fuse(1), and provides it the mount point where the fuse file system should be mounted.

OPTIONS
       -h, --help
	   Prints a short help text and exits.

       --version
	   Shows the version number and exits.

       -r, --replace
	   Replace the currently running gvfsd instance.

       --no-fuse
	   Don't start the fuse filesystem.

       -d, --debug
	   Enable debug output.

ENVIRONMENT
       GVFS_DISABLE_FUSE
	   If this environment variable is set, gvfsd will not start the fuse filesystem.

EXIT STATUS
       On success 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.
