+NAME
+----
+git-fsmonitor--daemon - A Built-in File System Monitor
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+'git fsmonitor--daemon' start
+'git fsmonitor--daemon' run
+'git fsmonitor--daemon' stop
+'git fsmonitor--daemon' status
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+A daemon to watch the working directory for file and directory
+changes using platform-specific file system notification facilities.
+
+This daemon communicates directly with commands like `git status`
+using the link:technical/api-simple-ipc.html[simple IPC] interface
+instead of the slower linkgit:githooks[5] interface.
+
+This daemon is built into Git so that no third-party tools are
+required.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+
+start::
+	Starts a daemon in the background.
+
+run::
+	Runs a daemon in the foreground.
+
+stop::
+	Stops the daemon running in the current working
+	directory, if present.
+
+status::
+	Exits with zero status if a daemon is watching the
+	current working directory.
+
+REMARKS
+-------
+
+This daemon is a long running process used to watch a single working
+directory and maintain a list of the recently changed files and
+directories.  Performance of commands such as `git status` can be
+increased if they just ask for a summary of changes to the working
+directory and can avoid scanning the disk.
+
+When `core.fsmonitor` is set to `true` (see linkgit:git-config[1])
+commands, such as `git status`, will ask the daemon for changes and
+automatically start it (if necessary).
+
+For more information see the "File System Monitor" section in
+linkgit:git-update-index[1].
+
+CAVEATS
+-------
+
+The fsmonitor daemon does not currently know about submodules and does
+not know to filter out file system events that happen within a
+submodule.  If fsmonitor daemon is watching a super repo and a file is
+modified within the working directory of a submodule, it will report
+the change (as happening against the super repo).  However, the client
+will properly ignore these extra events, so performance may be affected
+but it will not cause an incorrect result.

+ * The daemon classifies the pathnames that it receives from file
+ * system notification events into the following categories and uses
+ * that to decide whether clients are told about them.  (And to watch
+ * for file system synchronization events.)
+ *
+ * The daemon only collects and reports on the set of modified paths
+ * within the working directory (proper).
+ *
+ * The client should only care about paths within the working
+ * directory proper (inside the working directory and not ".git" nor
+ * inside of ".git/").  That is, the client has read the index and is
+ * asking for a list of any paths in the working directory that have
+ * been modified since the last token.  The client does not care about
+ * file system changes within the ".git/" directory (such as new loose
+ * objects or packfiles).  So the client will only receive paths that
+ * are classified as IS_WORKDIR_PATH.
+ *
+ * Note that ".git" is usually a directory and is therefore inside
+ * the cone of the FS watch that we have on the working directory root,
+ * so we will also get FS events for disk activity on and within ".git/"
+ * that we need to respond to or filter from the client.
+ *
+ * But Git also allows ".git" to be a *file* that points to a GITDIR
+ * outside of the working directory.  When this happens, we need to
+ * create FS watches on both the working directory root *and* on the
+ * (external) GITDIR root.  (The latter is required because we put
+ * cookie files inside it and use them to sync with the FS event
+ * stream.)
+ *
+ * Note that in the context of this discussion, I'm using "GITDIR"
+ * to only mean an external GITDIR referenced by a ".git" file.
+ *
+ * The platform FS event backends will receive watch-specific
+ * relative paths (except for those OS's that always emit absolute
+ * paths).  We use the following enum and routines to classify each
+ * path so that we know how to handle it.  There is a slight asymmetry
+ * here because ".git/" is inside the working directory and the
+ * (external) GITDIR is not, and therefore how we handle events may
+ * vary slightly, so I have different enums for "IS...DOT_GIT..." and
+ * "IS...GITDIR...".
+ *
+ * The daemon uses the IS_DOT_GIT and IS_GITDIR internally to mean the
+ * exact ".git" file/directory or GITDIR directory.  If the daemon
+ * receives a delete event for either of these paths, it will
+ * automatically shutdown, for example.
+ *
+ * Note that the daemon DOES NOT explicitly watch nor special case the

+ * The number of pathnames that we need to receive from FSMonitor

+ * Note that any pathname within the set of received paths MAY cause
+ * cache-entry or istate flag bits to be updated and thus cause the
+ * index to be updated on disk.
+ *
+ * However, the response may contain many paths (such as ignored
+ * paths) that will not update any flag bits.  And thus not force the
+ * index to be updated.  (This is fine and normal.)  It also means
+ * that the token will not be updated in the FSMonitor index
+ * extension.  So the next Git command will find the same token in the
+ * index, make the same token-relative request, and receive the same
+ * response (plus any newly changed paths).  If this response is large
+ * (and continues to grow), performance could be impacted.
+ *
+ * For example, if the user runs a build and it writes 100K object
+ * files but doesn't modify any source files, the index would not need
+ * to be updated.  The FSMonitor response (after the build and
+ * relative to a pre-build token) might be 5MB.  Each subsequent Git
+ * command will receive that same 100K/5MB response until something
+ * causes the index to be updated.  And `refresh_fsmonitor()` will
+ * have to iterate over those 100K paths each time.
+ *
+ * Performance could be improved if we optionally force update the
+ * index after a very large response and get an updated token into
+ * the FSMonitor index extension.  This should allow subsequent
+ * commands to get smaller and more current responses.
+ *
+ * The value chosen here does not need to be precise.  The index
+ * will be updated automatically the first time the user touches
+ * a tracked file and causes a command like `git status` to
+ * update an mtime to be updated and/or set a flag bit.
