## 项目历史与用法

FSEvents Tools is a small macOS command-line package for watching directories through Apple's FSEvents API and triggering shell actions when changes occur.

### 项目历史

The project was created by Geoff Greer as an OS X counterpart to Linux inotify-tools. Its README describes the package as command-line tools and scripts around OS X FSEvents, and the project site distributes signed release tarballs.

The public GitHub repository metadata records the repository as created in 2012. The upstream release page lists the 0.2.x, 0.3.0, and 1.0.0 tarballs, indicating a compact release history rather than a large framework-style project.

### 采用历史

The package is mainly aimed at macOS users who want inotify-tools-like behavior without writing against the FSEvents API directly. In the supplied package data it is packaged by Homebrew and MacPorts, matching that macOS focus.

### 使用方式

The README centers on three executables: notifywait for one-shot change notification, notifyloop for repeating a command after changes, and autorsync for rsync-based synchronization after file changes.

Common examples include sounding an alert when a directory changes, rebuilding LESS/CSS assets, and syncing a working tree to a remote server.

### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心

FSEvents Tools matters to package-manager users because it fills the same shell-scriptable niche on macOS that inotify-tools fills on Linux. It is a small native watcher that can be composed with make, rsync, build scripts, and other Unix tools.

### 时间线

- 2012: Public GitHub repository created.
- 2015: Project site described FSEvents Tools as the OS X counterpart to inotify-tools and documented signed release tarballs.
- 2016: Upstream repository activity shows the compact toolset stabilized around its existing command-line utilities.

### Related projects

- The README names inotify-tools as the direct inspiration and related Linux counterpart.
- The README also mentions Lsyncd as related software for keeping files synchronized between systems.
