.SH DESCRIPTION
.BR shatagd
Is a daemon companion to
.BR shatag (1)
that will monitor filesystem paths using
.BR inotify (7)
and automatically recompute a tag whenever a file is written to.

.SH OPTIONS

.IP "\fB\-d, \-\-daemon\fP"
Daemonize. You must use absolute file paths when using this option.

.IP "\fB\-r, \-\-recursive\fP"
Recursively watch sub-directories, as well as newly created directories.

.IP "\fB\-u, \-\-update\fP"
Only update already tagged files. See the shatag(1) manpage for pitfalls.

.IP "\fB\-v, \-\-verbose\fP"
Write to stdout the paths of files which have their tags recomputed.

.IP "\fB\-b \fIBACKEND\fB, --backend \fIBACKEND\fP"
Backend to use. see the \fB--backend\fP option of shatag(1).

.SH BUGS
Recursive mode is subject to an unavoidable race condition, due to a limitation of inotify.

Relative paths do not work when daemonized, only use absolute paths.
