ignore: resolve ignore files relative to repo root (issue4473) (BC) Previously these would be considered to be relative to the current working directory. That behavior is both undocumented and doesn't really make sense. There are two reasonable options for how to resolve relative paths: - relative to the repo root - relative to the config file Resolving these files relative to the repo root matches existing behavior with hooks. An earlier discussion about this is available at http://mercurial.markmail.org/thread/tvu7yhzsiywgkjzl. Thanks to Isaac Jurado <diptongo@gmail.com> for the initial patchset that spurred the discussion.
