jest-haste-map: Watchman crawl failed. Retrying once with node crawler.
  Usually this happens when watchman isn't running. Create an empty `.watchmanconfig` file in your project's root folder or initialize a git or hg repository in your project.
  Error: Watchman error: std::__1::system_error: open: /Users/abdullahshahid/Documents/caremiles-react-native-repo: Operation not permitted. Make sure watchman is running for this project. See https://facebook.github.io/watchman/docs/troubleshooting.

I had my repo in my Documents folder on my M1 macbook pro. This thread said to move it out of that folder and now it runs great!

One of the answers here mentioned placing the repo under Documents, but that did not work for me. Instead, I placed it under the Users/myuser/ directory and it worked.
