Contributions summary:Alex primarily contributed to enhancing the file watching library's functionality by implementing and refactoring the `awaitWriteFinish` option. This feature allows the watcher to delay events until files are fully written, improving reliability. The user also introduced test cases to validate the new functionality and refactored existing tests, demonstrating a focus on both feature development and quality assurance. Furthermore, several commits address race conditions and other edge cases.
