shep 0.19.0

The shep binary: a process manager that keeps a flock of long-running processes alive on macOS, Linux and Windows, with logs, watch and cron restarts, and webhook alerts
Documentation
//! The five tools that only read.
//!
//! Always present, regardless of `[whistle] allow_control`. `list_flock`,
//! `describe_sheep`, `get_metrics` and `tail_bleats` each send a request frame
//! the shepherd answers. `tail_bleats` also reads up to two log files by path,
//! and `list_barks` reads its file with no shepherd contact at all.
//!
//! `list_flock` and `describe_sheep` also take an optional `host`, which sends
//! the same frame to that host's own shepherd over ssh.
