注意：

update_watch(self, wd, mask=None, proc_fun=None, rec=False, auto_add=False, quiet=True)

rec (bool) – Optionally adds watches recursively on all subdirectories contained into |wd| directory.
auto_add (bool) – Automatically adds watches on newly created directories in the watch’s path corresponding to |wd|. If |auto_add| is True, IN_CREATE is ored with |mask| when the watch is updated.
