Description

The current implementation of flume-taildir-source does not support windows.

The only reason for this from what I can see is a simple call to Files.getAttribute(file.toPath(), "unix:ino");

I've tested an equivalent for windows (which of course does not work on non-windows). With an OS switch we should be able to identify a file independent of file name on either system.
