[Buildbot-devel] Standard practice with projects that try to modify .. ?

[Dustin J. Mitchell]

I think the question is not "what madness can I wreak with '..'" but
"how do I get a build process that expects to use '..' to behave?"

I think the best answer is to use a workdir argument to the
corresponding buildsteps (rather than the factory) within a
subdirectory.
