Shouldn't start watching .git

[nathany]

An event (not sure which) triggered the following:

Watching path .git/hooks
Watching path .git/info
Watching path .git/logs
Watching path .git/objects
Watching path .git/refs
Watching path .git/objects/f5
Watching path .git/objects/5a
Watching path .git/objects/b4

This was an existing git repository, so the .git folder was not created. Using OS X (kqueue).

Seems like there may be a regression in the recent changes. Though it's not obvious to me what happened yet.

With -debug it becomes more obvious.

Detected new directory .git/hooks
Watching path .git/hooks

It's checking hooks, which isn't a hidden directory, but is contained inside a hidden directory.

This happens to me when I switch to Tower.

The question is why it's seeing changes in .git at all. And indeed, it does not see changes when using fsnotify 1.0.4 (kqueue), but does with master.

Looks like an fsnotify regression. 😦

This bug in fsnotify would impact OS X and BSD users. It is now fixed on fsnotify master.
