Add a 'path' config option to junction elementssam/recursive-pipelines-in-subdir
This makes it possible to depend on a project which is in a subdirectory of a Git repository. The error message given when the expected project.conf file is not found has also been improved. Previously the error would look like this: Error loading pipeline: Could not find file at /home/sam/.cache/buildstream/build/freedesktop-sdk-junction-rvmn17s2/project.conf This is giving the path of an internal temporary directory where the foreign project's source is checked out. The new error gives more information: Error loading pipeline: Could not find the project.conf file for junction element at freedesktop-sdk-junction.bst [line 1 column 0]. Expecting a project at path '.' within git source at freedesktop-sdk-junction.bst [line 4 column 2]
