I'm not sure what would trigger this problem but I don't doubt that it is
possible.  Better to be safe than sorry. This is a better/faster solution than
you're previous patch.  Thank you!

See my response on the v1 of this series -- I'm curious how you're
_not_ seeing it, actually.  Can  you not replicate just by running
`git status` from differing parts of the working tree?

I saw your response but actually can't replicate it locally.  I've been running with Watchman integration on all my repos for months and my "watchman watch-list" command only shows the root of the various working directories - no subdirectories.
