Watchexec 1.21.0
Release notes
Software development often involves running the same commands over and over. Boring! Watchexec is a simple, standalone tool that watches a path and runs a command whenever it detects modifications. Install it today with cargo-binstall watchexec-cli, from the binaries below, find it in your favourite package manager, or build it from source with cargo install watchexec-cli.
In this release:
- New:
--stdin-quitmakes watchexec exit when STDIN closes, which avoids zombies when running with Elixir. (#440, #449) - Clearscreen improvements on systems without a functioning terminfo database. (#463)
Other changes:
- MSRV bumped to 1.61.0
- ZSH autocomplete fixes (#417)
- Artifacts are not signed due to a process failure. A new more standard signing setup is being prepared for next release.
