trackit is a command-line tool that listens for changes in a user-supplied directory. Whenever there is a change, a custom command is executed and its standard output is shown live in the terminal.

Examples

Show a live listing of the files in the current directory:

> trackit --watch-dir=. --command="ls --color"

Show a live revision graph of a Git repository:

> GIT_DIR=`git rev-parse --git-dir`
> trackit --watch-tree=$GIT_DIR --command="git log --graph --all --oneline --decorate --color"
