She credits runit and daemontools as inspiration, and it looks extremely similar. I hope that at some point she writes a comparison explaining what Nitro does differently from runit and why.
runit doesn't propagate SIGTERM to services it starts.
Hmm, is that desirable? If someone's going around sending SIGTERM to random processes they might also send SIGKILL, and there's no way Nitro can propagate SIGKILL to processes it starts.

It does if you use SIGHUP.
