Stefan Seifert commented on SLING-12490:
----------------------------------------
and for sure we cannot rely on
{{com.sun.nio.file.ExtendedWatchEventModifier.FILE_TREE}}, which seems to be
supported on windows, but also has it's own limitations.
i'm wondering if it's a good idea to go into this direction with that
limitations in place.
besides the unit test flakiness, the current implementation is stable.
