How get Source / Current Directory within custom action?

[Andrew Sumner]

I'm transferring a file over SSH in a custom extension. If the user doesn't provide a destination folder then I'm defaulting to the working directory using:

string destFileName = destFileOps.GetWorkingDirectory(this.Context.ApplicationId, this.Context.DeployableId ?? 0, "hello.sh");

This evaluates to /tmp/buildmaster/_A5/_S5/WRK/hello.sh

But if I use "Execute Shell Action" and just give it the filename of hello.sh it seems to expect it to be in the $CurrentDirectory which I believe defaults to the SRC directory.

What is the alternative to GetWorkingDirectory for the source/current directory?

$CurrentDirectory should be WRK when there is no "overridden" source directory (i.e. any path or something like ~\Src). Is it not resolving that correctly?

Turns out it does work, there was another issue preventing it from running.

What's got me confused though is that the script is being run from the SRC directory (that's what the unix pwd command implies) when it was copied to the WRK folder as you can see from the log.
