In my case sometime this is not working properly

watchmedo shell-command --recursive --patterns="/local/*" --command="rsync --filter=':- .gitignore' --exclude '*.ipynb' --exclude '.git' --delete-after -rz --port 22 /local/ user@server:/remote/" /local/

but when i remove --patterns during the folder sync like this

watchmedo shell-command --recursive --command="rsync --filter=':- .gitignore' --exclude '*.ipynb' --exclude '.git' --delete-after -rz --port 22 /local/ user@server:/remote/" /local/ and this is working fine for me.
