| Mar 7, 2015 at 18:36 | comment | added | krlmlr | @Costas: Thanks. Is there a tool that encapsulates this functionality behind a neat command-line interface? | |
| Mar 7, 2015 at 18:10 | comment | added | Costas | You can store your dir-hash after make completed (e.g. tar -cf - dir/ | sha1sum - > dir.hash than test it with watch -g 'tar -cf - dir/ | sha1sum -c dir.hash' ; make | |

| Mar 7, 2015 at 17:38 | comment | added | Costas | Additionally you can provide check by files hash-sum instead of modification time. | |
| Mar 7, 2015 at 17:35 | comment | added | Costas | OK, forget cron(which can start check every minute), use watch instead (to check every second). | |

| Mar 7, 2015 at 17:28 | comment | added | krlmlr | @Costas: The action should start immediately after changing files (perhaps after some configurable small delay). | |
| Mar 7, 2015 at 17:09 | comment | added | Costas | So I can uderstand you need to check file|directory changing and if so do some action(s). As for me it is usual task which can be provided via few tools, for example cron (to start check) + find (to modification check). | |
