ovnfs is a command-line tool and background daemon that provides isolated, copy-on-write checkouts of folders and Git repositories without copying their contents. Agents work in a checkout exposed through a single mount using NFSv3 on macOS, FUSE on Linux, or SMB/WinFsp on Windows; changes can be inspected as diffs and merged back with a three-way apply. Checkouts can also be snapshotted, forked, attached to another machine with lazy first-read transfer, or used for disposable command runs. ovnfs isolates files rather than processes, so it is not a sandbox. The project is distributed under the MIT license.

Gives every coding agent its own isolated copy-on-write checkout of any folder, git repo or not, without copying it, via a background daemon serving checkouts as a single mount over NFS, FUSE, or SMB. Changes are reviewed as diffs and merged back three-way.
