What version of Scalar are you using? When did you install Watchman relative to cloning your repository?

I'm assuming that you now have Watchman running, so could you run scalar run config in your repository and send the output?

scalar 0.2.173.2 compiled from source on centos7

output of scalar run config in one of my repo:

Setting recommended config settings...

My bad, this isn't very helpful. Could you look in .git/logs/ for a file named something like scalar_maintenance_YYYYMMDD_hhmmss.log and attach that? It should have a bunch of log lines that will help us determine if it is checking for Watchman or if something is going wrong there.
