Next.js not watching file changes inside node_modules folder

[chemzqm]

• I have searched the issues of this repository and believe that this is not a duplicate.

Expected Behavior

When I change javascript files inside node_modules folder, the related bundles should get recompiled.

Current Behavior

I have to restart next server to get the javascript file inside node_modules recompiled.

Context

I'm sure that webpack watch mode and webpack-dev-middleware have support for recompile bundle whenever any related javascript file changes, but it looks like next disables that and use watcher of itself instead.

This behaviour makes debug by tweak code in node_modules very painful.

Your Environment

Tech	Version
next	4.1.3
node	8.5
OS	MacOS
browser	any
etc
