cargo watch -w doesn't exclude other files

[Boscop]

I'm trying to have my exe only restart when it compiles, so I'm doing this in 2 instances of cmd.exe:

cargo watch -q -x check -s "echo > .watch"
cargo watch --no-gitignore -w .watch -x "run -p mybin"

I'm running this in a workspace where mybin is the binary I want to run and I have .watch in my .gitignore file.
But the 2nd command restarts mybin even when a rust source file changes on disk, not just when the .watch file changes, why?
Even when I don't run the 1st command, only the 2nd one, it also behaves that way...
Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

This is on windows?

I'm not sure why that doesn't work. Looks right to me.

Can you try with a file that doesn't start with a dot, just to see?

Yes, Windows 8.1.
I tried with a file named _watch, (also added it to .gitignore) but still the same behavior :(

Considering #82 too, it looks like ignoring files doesn't seem to work at all for me for some reason..
