Watch directory dependencies?

[jmackie]

Back at it again with the "workspace" problems...

If I have spago project A that depends on spago project B (in a sibling directory), it would be nice if spago build --watch run from project A responded to changes in project B. This may not be possible, but just a suggestion :)

See https://github.com/jmackie/spago-issues for a reproducible example of what I'd like to do (that link will probably rot, apologies)

I think this would be quite fine to wire in, but I'll think a bit about the implications of this.

In the meanwhile you can solve this by:

• not having B in the dependencies
• ..but instead including its sources with the --path option. E.g. in our monorepo we use the following to build at the top level: spago build --path "packages/*/src/**/*.purs" --path "apps/*/src/**/*.purs"

(Btw if you'd like the link to not rot you could make a branch and link to it instead)

@jmackie I opened #309 to fix this (and it will work correctly in all cases once #301 gets in too), could you try that branch and see if it works for you?
