Watching all files within a subdirectory

[nmagerko]

I will preface this with the fact that this is my first time using gulp (and, by extension, gulp-watch), so if I am missing something obvious, my apologies in advance!

Anyways, I am currently working on a project that uses Node v. 0.10.3+ and gulp to serve a simple webapp. My gulpfile is as follows (with impertinent components omitted):

var gulp           = require('gulp');
var nodemon        = require('gulp-nodemon');
var watch          = require('gulp-watch');

var paths = {
    server:     "./server.js",
    static: {
        src:    ['./src/static/**'],
        dest:   './dist/public/static/'
    }
};

var copyStatic = function(){
  gulp.src(paths.static.src)
  .pipe(gulp.dest(paths.static.dest));
};

gulp.task('watch', ['serve'], function() {
  watch({ glob: paths.static.src }, copyStatic());
});

gulp.task('serve', function(){
    return nodemon({
    script: paths.server
  });
});

From here, I essentially call the watch task, which I expect to watch for changes in './src/static/**', and (if it finds any changes) copy everything below static over to './dist/public/static'. However, I have noticed that adding a file to './src/static/img/', for example, does not cause anything to happen at all (no console output either). In other tasks, I use specific blobs like './src/js/*.js', and everything works perfectly.

Is this feature of watching all files within a subdirectory available, or am I simple using it incorrectly?

Thanks for reporting, but this is known issue and it should be fixed in near future in gaze.
