Description
When fs.watchFile(path, callback)
is called on an non-existing file, the 0.12
behavior is different than 0.10
.
In 0.10.38
, the callback is never called.
In 0.12.2
, the callback is called immediately with this object as curr
and prev
:
{ dev: 0,
mode: 0,
nlink: 0,
uid: 0,
gid: 0,
rdev: 0,
blksize: 0,
ino: 0,
size: 0,
blocks: 0,

This new behavior breaks one of my scripts.
