rs-notify doesn't work well with VIM or some other editors when watching for specific files : https://docs.rs/notify/latest/notify/#editor-behaviour

It's a bit tricky as well to watch for files that are linked in a @link directive because the src path is relative to the file they're defined in

Yes, true. It may trigger 2 or more data change events on a single file modification.
To fix this I have added a debounce delay in my PR (#2707), it ignores modification events for a specified time after the initial trigger to restart the server. It is working reliably well.
