NAME

       gitmount - GNU Interactive Tools - auto-mount script

SYNTAX

       gitmount device

DESCRIPTION

       gitmount  is a script which allows you to mount any block device without specifying the file system type.  You may now insert the floppy in
       the drive and type  ' gitmount fd0' and the first floppy will be mounted in the directory /mnt/fd0.  On Linux just press F11 or	F12.   You
       don't need to know the file system type anymore. The directories /mnt/fd0 and /mnt/fd1 are created if they don't exist.
