How to 'Watch' only a directory in a GitHub repository?

Question

For example, https://github.com/vanillaforums/Garden is the GitHub repository. But I only want to 'watch' this directory https://github.com/vanillaforums/Garden/tree/master/plugins in the repository.

How do I do that? There doesn't seem to be a way.

Answer 1

GitHub provides feeds that can do this for both directories and files.¹ Using that syndication, a service like Blog Trottr can send you an email whenever the feed is updated.

Some samples, taken from the Linux source code on master:

	Directory	File
Source on GitHub	/Documentation	/Documentation/Makefile
History on GitHub	/Documentation	/Documentation/Makefile
History Atom feed	/Documentation	/Documentation/Makefile
