Filter repetitive inotify events about the same file in C - c

Question

I'm developing a basic dropbox program. Very simple. I'm kinda stuck with the inotify thing. I need events that notifies about file creation, modification and deletion. I also need to filter out temporary files. I assume I need to be careful to not filter out truthful events, like if a user modifies the same file two or more times in a row.
If a modify a simple text file, I get three separate events: IN_CLOSE_WRITE test.c, IN_MOVED_TO test.c and IN_CLOSE_WRITE test.c. My expected result would be a single notify event about this file. Either one it's fine. All of them sends the same signal to server, to upload the file.
If I copy a file 'test.c': IN_CREATE test (copy).c and IN_CLOSE_WRITE test (copy).c. See the example above for the expected result.
Here's my code so far.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/inotify.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#define EVENT_BUF_LEN 4096
#define EVENT_SIZE sizeof(struct inotify_event)
typedef struct
{
int length, fd, wd;
char buffer[EVENT_BUF_LEN] __attribute__((aligned(__alignof__(struct inotify_event))));
} notification;
notification inotify;
void getNotified(char *pathname)
{
char command[256];
notification inotify;
inotify.fd = inotify_init();
inotify.wd = inotify_add_watch(inotify.fd, pathname, IN_CLOSE_WRITE | IN_CREATE | IN_MOVED_TO | IN_MOVED_FROM);
while (1)
{
inotify.length = read(inotify.fd, inotify.buffer, EVENT_BUF_LEN);
int i = 0;
while (i < inotify.length)
{
struct inotify_event *event = (struct inotify_event *)&inotify.buffer[i];
// Filtering out temporary files.
if (strstr(event->name, ".gout") != NULL)
{
i += (EVENT_SIZE + event->len);
continue;
}
if (event->mask & IN_CLOSE_WRITE)
strcpy(command, "IN_CLOSE_WRITE ");
else if (event->mask & IN_CREATE)
strcpy(command, "IN_CREATE ");
else if (event->mask & IN_MOVED_FROM)
strcpy(command, "IN_MOVED_FROM ");
else if (event->mask & IN_MOVED_TO)
strcpy(command, "IN_MOVED_TO ");
strcat(command, event->name);
printf("%s\n", command);
i += (EVENT_SIZE + event->len);
}
}
inotify_rm_watch(inotify.fd, inotify.wd);
close(inotify.fd);
}
int main(void)
{
getNotified(".");
return 0;
}
