Why does working directory change from action to action?



  • If you look at these two log outputs the Get Latest is going to WRK folder and Execute running from SRC folder!

  • This is how the "default directory" is implemented (see http://inedo.com/support/documentation/buildmaster/deployment-automation/deployment-plans/actions). It allows for the same directory to be used as input/output.

    At the start of the action, the "WRK" directory is moved to "SRC" and a new "WRK" directory is created.

    If there are no files in "WRK" at the end of the action, "WRK" is deleted and "SRC" is renamed to "WRK". Otherwise, SRC is deleted.
