Looking into making this single-thread friendly (see [howeyc #7][#7]) - -**Why am I receiving multiple events for the same file on OS X?** - -Spotlight indexing on OS X can result in multiple events (see [howeyc #62][#62]). A temporary workaround is to add your folder(s) to the *Spotlight Privacy settings* until we have a native FSEvents implementation (see [#11][]). - -**How many files can be watched at once?** - -There are OS-specific limits as to how many watches can be created: -* Linux: /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches contains the limit, reaching this limit results in a "no space left on device" error. -* BSD / OSX: sysctl variables "kern.maxfiles" and "kern.maxfilesperproc", reaching these limits results in a "too many open files" error. - -**Why don't notifications work with NFS filesystems or filesystem in userspace (FUSE)?** - -fsnotify requires support from underlying OS to work. The current NFS protocol does not provide network level support for file notifications. - -[#62]: https://github.com/howeyc/fsnotify/issues/62 -[#18]: https://github.com/fsnotify/fsnotify/issues/18 -[#11]: https://github.com/fsnotify/fsnotify/issues/11 -[#7]: https://github.com/howeyc/fsnotify/issues/7 +In addition to the above, if you want to remove the leftover `origin/master` +remote branch (NOTE this also removes all other remote branches that no longer +exist in `origin`): -[contributing]: https://github.com/fsnotify/fsnotify/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md +``` +git remote prune origin +``` -## Related Projects +## Background -* [notify](https://github.com/rjeczalik/notify) -* [fsevents](https://github.com/fsnotify/fsevents) +The `master` branch was renamed to `main`, causing an issue with +Yocto/OpenEmbedded's meta-virtualization layer, which explicitly refers +to `master` branch of this repository (see #426). +This temporary branch is created to alleviate the Yocto/OE issue. |
