Nice :-)
One remark: the following code is not sufficient:
(defun magit-filenotify-start ()
"Start watching for changes to the source tree using filenotify.
This can only be called from a magit status buffer."
(unless file-notify-support
(error "Support for `file-notify' required."))
...
There could be support even if `file-notify-support' is nil. This
variable reflects only, whether a respective library has been linked to
Emacs, working for local files. `file-notify' could run for remote
files, even if it is not supported locally.
Maybe we shall spend a new function
(defun file-notify-supported-p (file)
"Returns non-nil if filesystem pertaining to FILE could be watched."
...
Comments?
