How can I create a basis for an absolute path if the JVM's current directory is unrelated? e.g.
user> (tools.deps/create-basis {:project "/Users/vemv/foo/bar/deps.edn"})
Execution error (ExceptionInfo) at clojure.tools.deps.extensions.local/ensure-file (local.clj:41).
Local lib yyy not found: xxxfoo/bar {:local/root "../../baz"} so it's tripping up due to my unrelated CWD.

You can wrap in c.t.deps.util.dir/with-dir

It will use that as if it was the cwd

Thank you! 🙏
You might want to consider an addition to the create-basis docstring

You shouldn’t need to set the :project then either

> You shouldn’t need to set the :project then either I tried this and my tests began failing 🥲

Well I could be crazy but I would expect it to use deps.edn as the relative path, resolved against the with-dir

(Sorry if FAQ)
Given :deps {x/x {:local/root "../../x"}}, can I pull in its aliases too?
e.g. it defines :dev, I'd like to use its :dev alias from the dependent project
Some extra context: ../../x is not under my control (not without forking) so I can't simply re-architect things
