Rerendering dependencies does not work when child files are already watched

[sodoku]

#1086 addressed watching father files and their children jade files. It does not work for me, if the children are already being watched. Please see the example for more explanations.

Example

A main.jade which includes a.jade and b.jade

├── main.jade
├── includes/
    ├── a.jade (included from main.jade)
    ├── b.jade (included from main.jade)

working

If I watch only the main.jade

jade -w *.jade

the files a.jade and b.jade are automatically watched (as they are a dependency from main.jade). If I change a.jade, main.jade will be rerendered.

not working

If I watch all files

jade -w .

all files are being watched. But if I now change a.jade, only a.jade will be rerendered. main.jade will not be rerendered.

Darn it, now we actually have to build a tree of dependency.

I have the same issue. Is there a current workaround?

[TimothyGu]

@distilledhype not yet, until we merge my PR which will be in the next release (hopefully 2.0.0).

[kahlil]

@TimothyGu OK. Good to know that it is fixed already though. Any idea when that will be?

[kahlil]

@ForbesLindesay awesome that this is fixed now, but I assume I will have to wait until the release of Jade 2 in order to use it correct?

You could try using the new https://github.com/jadejs/jade-cli which will replace the built in jade binary in 2.0.0. It should already have all the updates.
