Replace `watchFile` usage with native `watch` #26

Open anonrig opened 1 year ago

anonrig commented 1 year ago

internal/fs/recursive_watch.js uses watchFile which depends on polling with 5007ms intervals. Replacing watchFile functionality with FSWatcher from lib/internal/fs/watchers.js would improve the stability of the recursive watch functionality, and will provide better performance.

isn't FSWatcher from lib/internal/fs/watchers.js capabilities limited across platforms? if yes how can we get around that?
