Use lowercase 'r' for 'RootDir', use single quotes :
"under 'rootDir' '{1}'. 'rootDir' is expected..."

The new option fixes #2644, which is a reactivation of #287, and has been in discussion in #2034.
Background
The current behavior of the compiler when using
--outDiris to duplicate the input structure in the output under the value of--outDir. the root of the input is computed as the longest common path of all source (.ts and not .d.ts) files. so an input ofFolderA\FolderB\1.tsandFolderA\FolderB\2.tswould result in computing the commonSourceRoot toFolderA\FolderB\. now if a new fileFolderA\3.tsis added to the input, the commonSourceRoot will pop out toFolderA\.This is generally undesirable and can be confusing. it also does not allow for folders that do not contain .ts files to be replicated in the output.
--rootDirflagThe new flag is used to customize the commonSourceRoot instead of automatically calculating it.
The same rules apply, i.e. all source files (.ts) should be under the rootDir, otherwise the output generation may not be correct.
The name
rootDiris meant to resembleoutDiras both flags go together.
