File watcher only scans for changes in the root directory, subdirectories should also be watched.

It does actually watch subdirectories: https://github.com/crosire/blink/blob/7a82c5017fcb8e2cb222261f85b7899983374980/source/file_watcher.cpp#L60 The bWatchSubtree parameter of ReadDirectoryChangesW is set to TRUE. It is working on my end.

Yup, my fault, sorry
