That project is unmaintained. Can you try the one described here instead?

(That issue provides more context about the current state of affairs).

Hi there. I  want to detect asciidoc file changes automatically and make them converted to html file. I followed https://github.com/asciidoctor/guard-asciidoc/blob/master/README.asciidoc guide. There are no error messages after running "bundle exec guard" and when I change and save files on visual studio code guard cannot detect the changes and update html file.

I am pretty sure asciidoctor file is changed I also checked with notepad.

Gemfile

source 'https://rubygems.org'

gem 'wdm', '>= 0.1.0' if Gem.win_platform?
gem 'guard'
gem 'guard-shell'
gem 'asciidoctor'

Guardfile
guard :asciidoctor

E:\Notes>bundle exec guard

I also tried the following guide and similar output.

How should I fix it? Maybe I misunderstand the how the guard works.
