[PATCH 0/7] fsmonitor: completing a stale patch that Implements fsmonitor for Linux

The goal in the original pull is to deliver fsmonitor for Linux that works similar to fsmonitor for Windows and Mac OS.

The original stale patch : https://github.com/git/git/pull/1352

This patch set builds upon previous work for done for Windows and Mac OS to implement a fsmonitor back-end for Linux based on the Linux inotify API. inotify differs significantly from the equivalent Windows and Mac OS APIs in that a watch must be registered for every directory of interest (rather than a singular watch at the root of the directory tree) and special care must be taken to handle directory renames correctly.

More information about inotify: https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/inotify.7.html
