Describe the problem/challenge you have
When using the --file-mark flag, only a filename is able to be specified, from one of the paths specified with the -f, --file flag. E.g., given the following directory structure:
and the following contents in dataDir/some-file.yaml:
foo:
bar: "baz"
Running ytt -f a/b -f a/dataDir/ --file-mark some-file.yaml:type=data --output-files foo --debug (note use of the --debug flag) produces the following output:
which produces the expected output file foo/other-file.yaml.
Describe the solution you'd like
Allow --file-mark to accept absolute paths, or introduce an additional flag, something like --file-mark-absolute which allows for absolute paths to files to be marked.
Anything else you would like to add:
This issue is similar to the discussion at #326, which is, in my opinion, fundamentally the same issue, but the proposed approach is a bit more specific; to allow for OS paths to specify filenames. Note as well that the discussion does not appear to have ever been resolved.
