fix: Tolerate missing directories when formatting from stdin#1848
Merged
Conversation
When formatting code passed via stdin, and using `--stdin-path`, the path passed may not exist. This is the case when using CSharpier as a [jj] fix tool: Commits are not checked out, so the directory containing the file being formatted may not actually exist on disk. When this happened, CSharpier was throwing a DirectoryNotFoundException from FindForDirectoryName in CSharpierConfigParser. Instead, we can predict this exception and check for configuration in the parent directory, until we find one that does exist. jj: https://jj-vcs.dev
