T. R. Bernstein	c037302c01	Report the directories a growing tree could not watch ... Extending an automatically watched tree to a new directory swallowed every error, so a reached watch limit or an unreadable directory left part of the tree unwatched without any sign. No call of the consumer is running at that moment, so the failures now arrive in the event stream as InotifyEvent.watchFailed, after the event that triggered the extension. The library watches what it can first: a reached limit ends the attempt, an unreadable directory is skipped with its subtree, and a directory that vanished in between is not reported. The buffer now carries the library's own events next to the kernel's, which keeps them in order and hides the stream's element type. The test runner drops root's DAC capabilities so that an unreadable directory can be tested.	2026-09-19 00:56:31 +02:00
T. R. Bernstein	8af25be549	Exclude items by shell pattern as well as by name ... Patterns such as `.*` or `@*` are matched against an item's own name with `fnmatch`, in the same places as excluded names: resolving a tree, extending a watch to a directory that appears later, and delivering events. Dependents that prune large trees can now skip whole families of directories without listing each name.	2026-09-16 11:21:45 +02:00
T. R. Bernstein	c79691cb6f	Stop descending into excluded directories ... The resolver skipped an excluded directory in its result but still walked its subtree, so watches were installed below names such as `.git` or `node_modules`. Exclusion now prunes the walk.	2026-09-13 23:15:21 +02:00
T. R. Bernstein	134034f3ea	Watch directories moved into the tree and report their content ... Automatic subtree watching only reacted to `CREATE`, so a directory moved in from elsewhere stayed unwatched. It is now handled like a created one. Items that already exist in such a directory never produce kernel events; they are reported with the same event kind and `synthesized` set to `true`, so consumers can treat them as newly appeared.	2026-09-13 23:13:32 +02:00
