That's not how it works.

The policy picks what branch to use and then once selected mergerfs will clone the relative path as needed. With "ep" policies it will never select a branch that doesn't have the full relative path. "msp" will always rerun the check one level up in the hierarchy if nothing is found at the current level.

This is immensely helpful, thanks.

Will MergerFS mount points behave the same as on the host inside of a docker container if passed as a bind mount?
