描述

Files described in "files" that are behind symlinks are not watched. I.e., updates do not trigger re-running tests, although the files are served correctly.

Symlinks can be especially important when incorporating modules from nested gitmodules. Esp. when using a global systemjs config.js file (where relative paths do not work).

研究方向
Investigate how Karma sets up file watchers, likely using the 'chokidar' library. Check the configuration of watch options and ensure symlinks are resolved. Look at related issues like #895 and the file watching module in the codebase. Modify the watcher to follow symlinks or ensure the `followSymlinks` option is enabled if available.
