You may optionally place a .Guardfile in your home directory to use it across multiple projects. It's evaluated when you have no Guardfile in your current directory.

If a .guard.rb is found in your home directory, it will be appended to the Guardfile in your current directory. This can be used for tasks you want guard to handle but other users probably don't.

For example, indexing your source tree with Ctags:

guard :shell do
  watch(%r{^(?:app|lib)/.+\.rb$}) { `ctags -R` }
end

This wiki and the Guard README document contain a lot of information, please take your time and read these instructions carefully.

If you run into any trouble, you may start by understanding how Guard works.

We provide detailed changes for each Guard release.

Be sure to read the CONTRIBUTING guidelines before reporting a new Guard issue or open a pull request.

If you have any questions about the Guard usage or want to share some information with the Guard community, please go to one of the following places:
