Hi,

this came up when trying to port tup (https://github.com/gittup/tup) to =
FreeBSD.

Even though we are opening the file read-only with cat, FUSE calls =
truncate() on it, which modifies its mtime and this screws up tup. See =
https://github.com/gittup/tup/issues/198

Anyone know why FreeBSD's FUSE is doing this?

Thanks,
Lars
