Monitor changed files into a log file, with day rotation, using fswatch (MacOS)
fswatch --exclude=.git/* --exclude=.settings --event-flags --event-flag-separator=\; -t -f '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S' . >> ./.file_changes_$(date +"%Y-%m-%d" | sed s/-//g).log
This command monitors changes in the current folder structure (subfolders included) and files, and log it into a hidden file in the same folder, called `.file_changes_YYMMDD.log`. Modify the `--exclude` parameters to define what should be skipped.
