Local endpoints

Mutagen’s local transport provides support for synchronizing and forwarding to and from local filesystem locations and network endpoints, respectively.

Synchronization

Local filesystem endpoints can be specified to the mutagen sync create command using their local path in either an absolute or relative format. If a relative path is specified, then it will be resolved relative to the working directory in which the mutagen sync create command is issued.

Forwarding

Local forwarding endpoints can be specified to the mutagen forward create command as raw network endpoints. For a description of the network endpoint format, please see the forwarding documentation. In the case of relative Unix domain socket paths, path resolution will be performed relative to the directory in which the mutagen forward create command is issued.
