If I ignore `.env` with `.gitignore` is there a way to watch it?

Opened this issue · 2 comments

I have this .gitignore:

/.dist
/.tmp
/.env

... and a lot more

and as you can see I'm ignoring .env file.

I'm using this command:

cargo watch --ignore "some" --ignore "some/another" -x run

But if I change the .env file obviously it doesn't re-run.

Is there a way to tell it to watch the .env file?

Something like:

cargo watch --ignore "some" --ignore "some/another" --watch ".env" -x run

not yet in cargo watch. we do have negative filters in watchexec, !pattern

Thanks. Can we leave this open until?
