Description
The drop-upload feature (#1429) uses inotify to detect filesystem changes, and therefore works only on Linux. This ticket is about supporting the same feature on Mac OS X, probably using fsevents. However, fsevents does not give notifications of which files have changed, so the implementation will have to scan the directory and look at last-modified times to determine that. (This is occasionally also necessary for correctness on Linux; see #1430.)
