[From the github page]

Watchman exists to watch files and record when they actually
change. It can also trigger actions (such as rebuilding assets)
when matching files change.

It builds on inotify to provide a more powerful notification.
It can be used as a component in a build system, and it was
suggested to me as a part of a backup system.
