511<p>This daemon is a long running process used to watch a single working
512directory and maintain a list of the recently changed files and
Junio C Hamanodc392382024-10-11 18:57:29513directories. Performance of commands such as <code>git</code> <code>status</code> can be
Junio C Hamanob96f40a2024-08-01 00:57:25514increased if they just ask for a summary of changes to the working
515directory and can avoid scanning the disk.</p>
516</div>
517<div class="paragraph">
518<p>When <code>core.fsmonitor</code> is set to <code>true</code> (see <a href="git-config.html">git-config(1)</a>)
Junio C Hamanodc392382024-10-11 18:57:29519commands, such as <code>git</code> <code>status</code>, will ask the daemon for changes and
Junio C Hamanob96f40a2024-08-01 00:57:25520automatically start it (if necessary).</p>

529<h2 id="_caveats">CAVEATS</h2>
530<div class="sectionbody">
531<div class="paragraph">
532<p>The fsmonitor daemon does not currently know about submodules and does
533not know to filter out filesystem events that happen within a
534submodule. If fsmonitor daemon is watching a super repo and a file is
535modified within the working directory of a submodule, it will report
536the change (as happening against the super repo). However, the client
537will properly ignore these extra events, so performance may be affected
538but it will not cause an incorrect result.</p>
539</div>
540<div class="paragraph">
541<p>By default, the fsmonitor daemon refuses to work with network-mounted
542repositories; this may be overridden by setting <code>fsmonitor.allowRemote</code> to
543<code>true</code>. Note, however, that the fsmonitor daemon is not guaranteed to work
544correctly with all network-mounted repositories, so such use is considered
545experimental.</p>
546</div>
547<div class="paragraph">
548<p>On Mac OS, the inter-process communication (IPC) between various Git
549commands and the fsmonitor daemon is done via a Unix domain socket (UDS)&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;a
550special type of file&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;which is supported by native Mac OS filesystems,
551but not on network-mounted filesystems, NTFS, or FAT32. Other filesystems
552may or may not have the needed support; the fsmonitor daemon is not guaranteed
553to work with these filesystems and such use is considered experimental.</p>
554</div>
555<div class="paragraph">
Junio C Hamanodc392382024-10-11 18:57:29556<p>By default, the socket is created in the .<code>git</code> directory. However, if the
557.<code>git</code> directory is on a network-mounted filesystem, it will instead be
Junio C Hamanoe03f5992025-04-23 22:24:29558created at <code>$HOME/.git-fsmonitor-*</code> unless <code>$HOME</code> itself is on a
Junio C Hamanob96f40a2024-08-01 00:57:25559network-mounted filesystem, in which case you must set the configuration
