This version of fsnotify needs Go 1.16 (this was already the case since 1.5.1, but not documented). It also increases the minimum Linux version to 2.6.32.
A command-line utility for testing and some examples.
Changes and fixes
inotify: don't ignore events for files that don't exist (#260, #470)
Previously the inotify watcher would call os.Lstat() to check if a file still exists before emitting events.
This was inconsistent with other platforms and resulted in inconsistent event reporting (e.g. when a file is quickly removed and re-created), and generally a source of confusion. It was added in 2013 to fix a memory leak that no longer exists.
all: return ErrNonExistentWatch when Remove() is called on a path that's
not watched (#460)
inotify: replace epoll() with non-blocking inotify (#434)
Non-blocking inotify was not generally available at the time this library was written in 2014, but now it is. As a result, the minimum Linux version is bumped from 2.6.27 to 2.6.32. This hugely simplifies the code and is faster.
kqueue requires a file descriptor for every file in a directory; this would fail if a file was unreadable by the current user. Now these files are simply skipped.
windows: fix renaming a watched directory if the parent is also watched (#370)
windows: increase buffer size from 4K to 64K (#485)
