Can I convince PyCharm to watch project files on an EncFS mount?


I recently started using EncFS to secure my employer's code (in the event that my laptop is stolen). However, when I start PyCharm I now get the following warning (every time):

External file changes sync may be slow Project files cannot be watched (are they under network mount?)

The files are on a local mount. I imagine there is some overhead introduced by EncFS, but I would hope it is negligible. How can I convince PyCharm to stop worrying about it and treat them as local files?

(As a last resort, how can I stop this warning every time I start?)


Solution

  • This is an old post, but still:

    According to the JetBrains Bug Tracker and the Canonical Bug Tracker you need to make <pyCharm>/bin/fsnotifier64 executable.
