I installed Git v2.36.0 for Windows (64-bit) and when running commands I get the following output.

hint: core.useBuiltinFSMonitor will be deprecated soon; use core.fsmonitor instead hint: Disable this message with "git config advice.useCoreFSMonitorConfig false"

I opened the system Git config file and updated it to have the below.
 useBuiltinFSMonitor = false

After this change I no longer get that output. However, the hint indicated that I should "use core.fsmonitor instead". Is there something else I should be doing besides just telling it not to useBuildtinFSMonitor? How do I tell it to "use core.fsmonitor instead"?
