Before Mode
The Before mode places the new source before the existing contents of the mountpoint in the lookup order.
Usage
frg bind -b src mountpoint
Behavior
When a lookup occurs, froggr searches src
first, and if the file isn't found there, it searches the original mountpoint
. This creates a layered view where new content takes precedence over existing content.
Examples
Custom Binary Directory
Add custom binaries that take precedence over system binaries:
frg bind -b /custom/bin /bin
In this case, /custom/bin/ls
will be used instead of /bin/ls
if both exist, while other commands will fall back to /bin
.
Development Libraries
Prioritize development versions of libraries:
frg bind -b /dev/libs /usr/lib
This allows testing new library versions while maintaining access to the system libraries as fallback.
