=NAME IO::Notification::Recursive

=SYNOPSIS

    use IO::Notification::Recursive;

    my $supply = watch-recursive(".");

    # mention any changes on any files in the current directory and any subdirectories.
    $supply.tap({ .say; });

    # Also watch for changes in any newly created subdirectories
    my $supply = watch-recursive(".", :update);

=DESCRIPTION

Perl 6 comes with a way to watch a file or directory for changes called
IO::Notification.watch-path().  As files are changed or created or removed
from a directory you are watching, these changes are registered on the
C<Supply> created by .watch-path(). However, if any files are changed or
created or removed from any subdirectories, those do not generate changes
on the Supply.  This module provides a C<watch-recursive()> subroutine
that will generate changes for a directory and any subdirectories.

By default, if the directory you are watching has subdirectories created
while you are watching it, these new directories are B<not> added to the
list of watched directories.  If you pass the C<:update> parameter, newly
created subdirectories within any directories you are currently watching
will also be watched for changes.
