I am interested in a git repository of some software/library (not owned or controlled by me, hosted on Github), also having the full repository checked out on my computer with git.

But I actually only care about changes in a specific subdirectory of the repository.

How can I monitor only the changes in that one subdirectory, when commits touch files in there?

Would codeowners be suitable https://help.github.com/articles/about-codeowners/ – osowskit Sep 21 '17 at 14:17
That is a great idea, unfortunately this is not _my_ repository (added above). – janpio Sep 21 '17 at 14:24

you can watch, but only repo, not subdirectory – Alexan Sep 21 '17 at 14:32
That's where I am coming from Alexan. It is much to noisy :( – janpio Sep 21 '17 at 14:33
This would maybe qualify as an answer to my question: https://stackoverflow.com/a/4909267/252627 (Unfortunately I can't post this as the question is now "on hold" because "offtopic") – janpio Sep 22 '17 at 15:57
