Jest: Jest command does nothing

[binarykitchen]

Typing jest does nothing. Have to hit CTRL-C to abort. Using version 15.1.1 but this does not matter. Also happens on latest, 20.0.4.

└─( 7 ) ❱❱❱ jest
^C

└─( 7 ) ❱❱❱ jest --version
^C

└─( 7 ) ❱❱❱ jest --verbose
^C

└─( 7 ) ❱❱❱ node -v
v4.4.5

└─( 7 ) ❱❱❱ npm -v
2.15.5

└─( 7 ) ❱❱❱ which jest
node_modules/.bin/jest

Any clues what this could be?

Probably related to watchman: #1767

Try to uninstall watchman, try Jest again, try to reinstall watchman with homebrew if you need it.

Argh, that was it. Watchman, don't mess with me!

(maybe want to add code to detect and warn about it?)
