Kegan Dougal b6f0b67da6 Speed up continuserv
Ignore .git directory as that shouldn't affect spec generation. Also, when
we receive writes from the OS, wait a bit before re-generating the spec to
clump together multiple writes rather than re-generating one after another
and waiting for no more writes before serving the request.
