Improved watching with chokidar #3980

merged 2 commits into from Sep 9, 2019

Commits on Sep 5, 2019

  1. Improved watching with chokidar 

    This change improves the file watching behavior and fixes mochajs#3912.

* We introduce the `--watch-files` command line option. This option
  allows control over which files are and is separate and more powerful
  than `--extension`. Fixes mochajs#2702.
* We introduce the `--watch-ignore` command line option that allows
  control over which files are not watched. Before this was hardcoded to
  `node_modules` and `.git`. See mochajs#2554.
* The `chokidar` package now handles file watching. (We’re using version
  `2.1.6` instead of `3.x` because the latter dropped support for Node
  v6.)
* New test files are picked up by the file watcher and run. Fixes mochajs#2176.
