Thanks once again for all replies, setsuid == sudo essentially, so I think it is reasonably implied by my no sudo requirement. I'll have a look at the other solutions mentioned in more detail. I never implied that you should do this feature. I definitely won't do it, since I know nothing about ext2, and I can work around with the same ugly workarounds as always, and me contributing to this project once won't make me considerably more famous be worth my time. Of course, those ugly workarounds are...
Ah, OK, I didn't realize fuse2fs was from this repo. And that doesn't rely on setsuid? If that is the case, awesome, problem solved. Otherwise, setsuid is cheating ;-)
Thanks, I'm on Ubuntu 18.04 and I don't want to use sudo for the opration (does Windows have sudo nowadays? ;-)) I'm aware of solutions that don't use this repo from Stack Overflow, I meant to ask more specifically if this repo can do it. debugfs seems to get so close, so I feel this repo would be the natural place to do it. E.g. with a "cp -r" operation debugfs + a --batch option to not have the pager. If there any technical reason it is not implemented here besides lack of interest? PS: please...
E.g., if you create an image file with "mke2fs -d" at file img.ext2, is there a way to easily extract all the files contained in img.ext2? debugfs is the tool that comes closest with cat, but I would need to script that with ls which is annoying. Is there something better in the tools?
