I've been testing Mutagen's file sync through DDEV on a Drupal project and it's pretty nice! The project is way more snappy than using NFS mounts on the Mac (which was already WAY faster than bind mounts), and DDEV has file ignores set up correctly so the project's media files aren't synced and disk usage isn't doubled.

Same! Mutagen + DDEV have been a godsend for me

Yeah, Randy's done a great job with the integration - it seems to work seamlessly for most users as far as I can tell. I'm really excited to get Mutagen v0.14 and beyond into DDEV, because support for fanotify[0] is being added and it's going to make Mutagen's Linux filesystem watching unbelievably faster for container-based development.

  I'm switching from using docker-compose + docker-sync[0] to using mutagen-compose and am recommending my coworkers across Windows, Intel Mac, and Apple Silicon Mac all do the same. For me mutagen-compose is solving the same performance file mount performance problems I was using docker-sync to solve, but mutagen is doing it much more reliably. I would have to restart the docker-sync (and sometimes the docker daemon) multiple times a day. So far mutagen "just works".

    Glad to hear that it works for you. Don't hesitate to reach out on the Mutagen issue tracker or Slack channel if you run into any issues or questions - I'm always happy to help.
