Hello,
\n
from the documentation, it seems that paths in version_files can be either
\n
\n
relative to execution path
\n
absolute path
\n
glob patterns
\n
\n
I might be missing something, but IMHO a sensible option would be to also specify files relatively to the commitizen configuration file's path. For example:
\n
# /home/myself/project/cz.toml\n[tool.commitizen]\nversion_files = [\n    \"src/__version__.py\", # relative to execution path: won't update if we call `cz bump` from the project `src` dir\n    \"$CZCONFIG/src/__version__.py\", # relative to where the cz config file is, will always update the file\n]\n
\n
In this case, $CZCONFIG would make that path relative to /home/myself/project/.
\n
Is something like this currently possible?
\n
EDIT: clearly I'm avoiding absolute paths so that configurations can be shared among multiple workstation/people/locations/etc.

I think it's (or should be) based on config file 🤔 If not, it sounds like a bug to me. but I'll need to test it out
