Watchman purpose is to watch files and record when there are changes. It can trigger actions (rebuilding assets, for example) when there is a change in matching files. The watchman executable has both the client and the server components of the watchman service. When running watchman, it will attempt to communicate with your existing server instance (each user has their own persistent process), and will attempt to start it if it doesn’t exist.

...The tool maintains chunk fingerprints and a manifest so it can de-duplicate across versions and even across different files that share regions of content. This approach makes it well suited for large logs, VM images, and binary assets where small edits would otherwise force full re-uploads. The implementation focuses on being robust over unreliable networks with resumable transfers and integrity checks that verify every chunk. Operationally, it behaves like a straightforward CLI: point it at a source and destination and it negotiates what needs to move, minimizing CPU and bandwidth where possible.

The Ruby Dynamic Data Tracker project aims at designing an evolution of the BeOS Tracker interface. It takes advantage of the assets of the Ruby language. It is written especially for FreeBSD although any Unix-compliant OS running QT should do.
