wrong current directory in workspace

[andrewbanchich]

I just did a cargo install cargo-watch to update and running cargo watch -c -x "run" from a workspace directory will run the workspaces default-members binary instead.

Workspace Cargo.toml:

[workspace]
default-members = ["foo"]

members = [
    "foo",
    "bar/baz",
]

If I cd into ./bar/baz and run cargo watch -c -x "run", foo will run. If I run cargo run from the same directory, baz runs.

Downgrading to 7.7.0 works. Looks like 7.7.1 introduced the change.

Mmm. I'm not sure which way is the expected behaviour.

Context: the behaviour change is because the code that changes the directory was looking for the first parent with a Cargo.toml, and that got changed to read the manifests and find the real cargo root instead.

However, when the code was originally written, workspaces weren't a thing, and the intent was indeed to run from the root. The code was literally named fn cargo_root().

I think remaking the effective behaviour is probably the right thing to do.

Fixes in 7.8.0

Awesome, thanks!
