[v.7.4.0] -w usage loops forever

[apiraino]

I used v7.3.0 with the following command line:

cargo watch -w src/ -x run

after the update to v.7.4.0 that command seems to not be working anymore (my Warp server is not starting anymore, I expect to it run and listen on localhost:3000).

Fiddling with command line parameters I could work around this new behaviour by adding --no-gitignore. The following command makes cargo watch work again as expected:

cargo watch --no-gitignore -w src/ -x run

I've tried editing the content or .gitignore or removing the file altogether but I didnt notice any difference.

Am I possibly missing something?

Thanks for your help!

Attaching a debug run of both cases in case it helps

Okay, bug is actually that using -w without --no-gitignore busy-loops on a thread forever. Not sure why yet. Not using -w works.

Okay, so, running strace helps:

statx(AT_FDCWD, "/home/code/rust/watchexec/src/.git", AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT, STATX_ALL, 0x7ffd8e0ccdc0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

times a billion

Fixed in watchexec, releases coming soon.
