NAME
mount_nilfs - mount a NILFS file system
SYNOPSIS
mount_nilfs [-c checkpoint] [-o options] [-t gmtoff] special node
DESCRIPTION
NILFS is a log-structured file system designed to support fast writing,
fast recovery times, live snapshots, concurrent read-only snapshot

trees.
The mount_nilfs command attaches the NILFS file system residing on the
specified special device node on the location indicated with node.
-c checkpoint
Select the checkpoint number checkpoint to be mounted instead
of the default last one.
-o options Use the specified mount options as specified in mount(8).

with positive values indicating east of the Prime Meridian.
If not set, the user's current time zone will be used.
