Description

Growing files can be followed from the terminal using filesystem notifications instead of repeated polling.

It is useful for watching logs or generated files while reducing unnecessary checks. File-following tools can display secrets from logs, so avoid sharing terminal output that contains private data.

How to run

inotail

Commands: inotail
