-----------------------------------------------

[~jkushmaul]: from the code snippet you have posted it looks like there could 
be collisions. (I might be wrong, though)

It seems to me that keys in the Map we have (tailFiles) should be unique for 
the source to work correctly.

I think we should find a solution that is portable and has very low (possibly 
~zero) chances of malfunctioning.

> The current implementation of flume-taildir-source does not support windows.
> The only reason for this from what I can see is a simple call to 
> Files.getAttribute(file.toPath(), "unix:ino");
> I've tested an equivalent for windows (which of course does not work on 
> non-windows).  With an OS switch we should be able to identify a file 
> independent of file name on either system.
