Hi fsevents is an API available only on OSX. So if you're using another OS like Windows as do I. Normally software that wants to use fsevents will provide an alternative or make it optional as your message reads. To my knowledge it will not stop gulp from running. I hope this can at least solve your problem or help you towards a solution.
