Electron version struggles with app.asar

[victorbnl]

I'm running the electron version and ungit crashes if there is an app.asar (seems to depend on which app.asar it is, and where the file is located) in the folder

It seems to believe app.asar is a directory, which as an assets subdirectory, while it's a file

Reproduce

1. Download and extract ungit's latest release
2. Try to open the parent folder containing the extracted release, with ungit electron

Simple Linux command for the above

mkdir test && cd test && wget 'https://github.com/FredrikNoren/ungit/releases/download/v1.5.21/ungit-1.5.21-linux-x64.zip' && unzip ungit-1.5.21-linux-x64.zip && ungit-linux-x64/ungit

electron monkey patches the fs APIs to transparently support reading files from asar archives (asar is similar to zip) which interfers with node-watch.
