May I request a bit of extra time on the -rc0 to -rc1 cycle for
this? I have a feeling
that while testing this is probably going to go well, I would like to
have a bit of extra time for anything that might come up. There are a
lot of moving parts to this series. Not being critical, but debugging
scripts on my platforms can be a bit rough at times.

Thanks,
Randall


I'll simplify the `start_daemon()` function as Junio suggests, so
hopefully that'll reduce the amount of debugging that you need.
Thanks.

BTW, which platforms are you worried about?
I'm worried about NonStop ia64 and x86. It's not just this series but also the
fsync series. I think it's going to be a bit of a rid this time, but hoping not.

I currently only have drivers/backends for Windows and MacOS for the builtin
FSMonitor daemon feature.  Since it relies on platform-specific code to read
whatever filesystem journal or event stream that the the platform provides.

So t7527 should do a skip_all on NonStop IIUC.

I would have thought this was applicable to Linux also. So use, it should skip. Be in touch when if you do down that path.

Sorry, yeah, I wanted to do a Linux version too, but there was just too
much platform-specific stuff to juggle three different backends at
the same time.  I have the APIs in place between platform-specific and
-independent code so that it shouldn't be hard to add a Linux version.
I just didn't have the capacity to do all three (and the rest of
$dayjob....)
