Crashes with "EMFILE: too many open files" on large projects

My project has 35,085 files in 3,652 directories. When I load the web interface, it fails with:

Error: EMFILE: too many open files, open '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/codecrumbs/node_modules/watchpack/lib/DirectoryWatcher.js'

It’s actually a Go project, for the most part. (I cloned the Java support files to add Go support. 😃

The biggest chunk of files, though, is a sub-directory containing a third party library I included in my project that has code in a variety of languages. I could easily exclude that if there were a command-line flag for it. The only directory in there that looks like codecrumbs could ignore as a rule is a Python site-packages directory.

Sorry, didn’t really have time to look at this, was working on other features 😃 just so you know, there is -x CLI parameter (see readme for details) you can use to exclude folders you don’t need (so there are less files)
