In paulmillr/chokidar#1197, the maintainer of chokidar asked if chokidar or fsevents is the right layer to handle when macOS reports kFSEventStreamEventFlagMustScanSubDirs. Can the maintainer please comment there or here?

Hi folks, wondering if someone can take a look at this and offer some feedback?

Would love someone to take a look here, please.

In all truth, there is no longer a reason that chokidar should use the fsevents module any longer.

libuv has been using the fsevents mac technology for a while now such that there is now no supported node version that doesn’t have it. That means in the context of file watching this is now entirely superfluous.
