[GitHub] [buildstream] gtristan commented on issue #191: Allow project relative workspace paths

   Update: This is still an issue, although low priority.
   
   * When opening a workspace in a project subdirectory:
     * The workspace is encoded as a relative path in `.bst2/workspaces.yml`
     * The project path is encoded as an **absolute** path in the open workspace's `.bstproject.yml`
       * This means that the project is not relocatable with open workspaces, even the workspace is a subdirectory
   * When opening a workspace as a relative path, e.g. `bst workspace open itbaby.bst --directory ../workitbaby`
     * The workspace is encoded as an **absolute** path in `.bst2/workspaces.yml`, even though it was opened as a relative path
       * This means the project is even more non-relocatable when opening a workspace in a relative path that is not a subdirectory of the project
