Here is version 2 of this series.

In version 1, I replaced the non-portable "xargs -d" with "xargs -0", but it turns out that that too is not universally available. In this version I replace the need for either one by filtering out the problematic paths (such as ones with LFs) and quoting paths to handle whitespace. The resulting paths can be passed to xargs without any arguments.

Also, I updated the test to use test-tool chmtime rather than touch to ensure that the files actually look dirty on low-resolution file systems.

Jeff Hostetler (10):
  p7519: do not rely on "xargs -d" in test
  p7519: fix watchman watch-list test on Windows
  p7519: move watchman cleanup earlier in the test
  p7519: add trace logging during perf test
  preload-index: log the number of lstat calls to trace2
  read-cache: log the number of lstat calls to trace2
  read-cache: log the number of scanned files to trace2
  fsmonitor: log invocation of FSMonitor hook to trace2
  fsmonitor: log FSMN token when reading and writing the index
  fsmonitor: refactor initialization of fsmonitor_last_update token
Kevin Willford (1):
  fsmonitor: allow all entries for a folder to be invalidated

     -    p7519: use xargs -0 rather than -d in test
     +    p7519: do not rely on "xargs -d" in test
      
     -    The Mac version of xargs does not support the "-d" option.  Convert the test
     -    setup to pipe the data set thru `lf_to_nul | xargs -0` instead.
     +    Convert the test to use a more portable method to update the mtime on a
     +    large number of files under version control.
     +
     +    The Mac version of xargs does not support the "-d" option.
     +    Likewise, the "-0" and "--null" options are not portable.
     +
     +    Furthermore, use `test-tool chmtime` rather than `touch` to update the
     +    mtime to ensure that it is actually updated (especially on file systems
     +    with only whole second resolution).
