CLI-1271: Fix XDG Base Dir implementation
Our XDG Base Dir implementation isn't quite right. If $HOME/.acquia
doesn't exist and $XDG_CONFIG_HOME
is unset, ACLI will create the new config directory at $HOME/.config/acquia
. But this is very Linux-centric. On MacOS and Windows, there are more appropriate directories (e.g., $HOME/Library/Application Support
and LocalAppData
).
We should fix this by using an existing XDG Base Dir implementation: https://github.com/php-xdg/base-directory
The problem is if we fix this now, it will break folks who've already adopted the new location on MacOS and Windows. So we need to maintain backwards compatibility with both legacy locations, or else have a major release and BC-break.
