watch depedency has no effect on task selection
I am using watch dependency as follows:
def task_build_tgz():
return {
'actions': [do_action],
'targets': targets,
'uptodate': [run_once],
'watch': watch_dirs
}watch_dirs is list of directory names. However, when file is changed the task is not getting invoked.
I think this is bug if I understand the watch semantics correctly. I would like to debug this myself, would be very help if someone can guide which is the relevant file to look for working of this dependency parameter.
