Robert Scholte commented on MASSEMBLY-775:
------------------------------------------
When using {{File}} such path (starting with a slash!) is resolved as absolute
on Linux and relative to the working directory on Windows.
This can be done on purpose, so maybe a warning is better. However in general I
would expect that it should be relative to the project directory, so the
starting slash would be a mistake with consequences.
I think we should start using {{Path}}, so the behavior is the same for all
OSes.
{{project.getBasedir().toPath().resolve( "/a/b/c" );}}
