Describe the bug

Thanks for all your work!

Maybe I'm misusing or misunderstood, but having problems with addPassthroughCopy. I have it set to assets. When I renamed an image file, it didn't get copied until I restarted 11ty serve command, and the old file remained in the _site folder.

Reproduction steps

Using this config:

eleventyConfig.addPassthroughCopy("assets");

1. Add file /assets/images/cookies sticker - cloud convert.svg
2. Rename that file to cookies.svg

The file in _site was not renamed. When I stopped and started npx @11ty/eleventy --serve, the new file appeared but the old file remained

Expected behavior

The file is renamed in _site without having to restart npx @11ty/eleventy --serve

Related to #2798 and #19

That said I would expect a new cookies.svg to trigger a build if its matches a passthrough copy location. I ran a quick test and verified in a simple project that this behavior does work, so there might be another circumstance happening here. Can you run Debug mode and provide the Watching for changes to: line?

https://www.11ty.dev/docs/debugging/

Mine looked like:

  Eleventy Watching for changes to: [ './package.json', './**/*.{liquid,ejs,md,hbs,mustache,haml,pug,njk,html,11ty.js,11ty.cjs}', './assets/**', './_includes/**', './_data/**', './.gitignore', './.eleventyignore', './.eleventy.js', './eleventy.config.js', './eleventy.config.cjs', './**/*.{json,11tydata.cjs,11tydata.js}' ] +5ms
  Eleventy Ignoring watcher changes to: [ '_site/**', './**/node_modules/**', './.git/**' ] +0ms

Thanks! I just tried again and couldn't replicate, sorry about that. I'll close this and keep an eye on if it happens again
