If you have a directory symlinked, the hakyll file system watcher doesn't seem to catch changes within that directory.

I have a symlinked directory, and real files within it seem to work fine with watch; however symlinks (e.g. to markdown posts don't)

Also I guess related to this haskell-fswatch/hfsnotify#87

I've ended up compensating it by a companion script that watches over referrents and updates the symlinks, so hakyll notices it and rebuilds. Here is how I run it altogether.
