                Increase inotify watchers in Docker images during build
              
          
    Increasing fs.inotify.max_user_watches for Docker images


TL;DR You can't set those for an image during build time becasue Docker takes
the sysctl configuration from the Host. So, set the config on your host machine.

As in this
link, to increase the maximum watchers, we need set fs.inotify.max_user_watches
to a higher number in /etc/sysctl.conf.


## monitor.sh
inotifywait --monitor --timefmt '%F %T' --format '%T %w%f %e' --recursive $1
