The docs for getting watchman to run at startup say to run watchman version in ~/.bashrc or equivalent. But that doesn't seem to work for me, not sure why I put that in the docs.

Anyway, I finally took the time to figure out how to get it running with systemd. I should share my new found knowledge.

The docs used to recommend running 'watchman version' from the profile file.
But this doesn't actually seem to work for me. I don't remember why I even put
that in there. I finally took the time to get watchman set up as a systemd
service. This is just sharing the knowledge.
