NAME
gvfsd-metadata - Metadata daemon for gvfs
SYNOPSIS
gvfs-metadata [OPTION...]
DESCRIPTION
gvfsd-metadata is a daemon acting as a write serialiser to the internal
gvfs metadata storage. It is autostarted by GIO clients when they make
metadata changes. Read operations are done by client-side GIO code
directly, and don't require the daemon to be running.
The gvfs metadata capabilities are used by the nautilus file manager,
for example.
