to do after that, is to rebuild Hugo and the new comment should appear.
## Watching for changes via systemd
Hugo accepts the `--watch` command without the `server` option:
`hugo --watch` is valid and it will watch the directory and rebuild the files, if something changes.
Knowing that, we can build a systemd service from that, which could look like this:
```
[Unit]
Description=Hugo
After=syslog.target
After=network.target
[Service]
RestartSec=2s
Type=simple
User=www-data
Group=www-data
WorkingDirectory=/var/www/html/
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/hugo --watch --minify --noChmod --cleanDestinationDir --gc
Restart=always
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
```
`-noChmod` is a very important switch for this, because it stops the server from adjusting the file permissions.
This comes in handy if you have a difference in user and group on your web server. `--cleanDestinationDir` and `--gc`
will clean old files out, so you don't have to worry about synching the public directory with the current content of
your static or assets dir. There will also be no old CSS files be lying around when using fingerprinting.
