Description

If I create a new folder with osx we get a event with the filename `untitled folder` but then as soon as I name it, we get an error trying to import:

```
Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat '/Users/joe/Desktop/trash/more-trash/untitled folder'
```

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue on macOS: create a folder, observe the `untitled folder` event, then rename it and follow the recursive watcher’s import handling. Done means renaming a newly created folder no longer causes an ENOENT error for the temporary name.
