baseUrl isn't supported: #474

[DanielRosenwasser]

I guess @andrewbranch clarified that baseUrl is meant to be deprecated in 6.0 over at #474. I ran into this when trying to compile https://github.com/getsentry/sentry, which has a directory structure like the following:

.
├── configs/
│   └── tsconfig.base.json
├── tsconfig.json
└── src/
    ├── fileA.tsx
    └── fileB.tsx

tsconfig.base.json specifies a baseUrl back at the top level

{
  // ...
  "baseUrl": "..",
  "paths": { /*...*/ },
  // ...
}

But then I'm guessing all the specifiers are resolved relative to the base config file and so this just breaks.

Is the intended workaround the following?

-  "baseUrl": "../",
  "paths": {
-   "sentry/*": ["static/app/*"],
-   "sentry-fixture/*": ["tests/js/fixtures/*"],
-   "sentry-test/*": ["tests/js/sentry-test/*"],
-   "getsentry-test/*": ["tests/js/getsentry-test/*"],
-   "sentry-images/*": ["static/images/*"],
-   "sentry-locale/*": ["src/sentry/locale/*"],
-   "sentry-logos/*": ["src/sentry/static/sentry/images/logos/*"],
-   "sentry-fonts/*": ["static/fonts/*"],
-   "getsentry/*": ["static/gsApp/*"],
-   "getsentry-images/*": ["static/images/*"],
-   "admin/*": ["static/gsAdmin/*"]
+   "sentry/*": ["../static/app/*"],
+   "sentry-fixture/*": ["../tests/js/fixtures/*"],
+   "sentry-test/*": ["../tests/js/sentry-test/*"],
+   "getsentry-test/*": ["../tests/js/getsentry-test/*"],
+   "sentry-images/*": ["../static/images/*"],
+   "sentry-locale/*": ["../src/sentry/locale/*"],
+   "sentry-logos/*": ["../src/sentry/static/sentry/images/logos/*"],
+   "sentry-fonts/*": ["../static/fonts/*"],
+   "getsentry/*": ["../static/gsApp/*"],
+   "getsentry-images/*": ["../static/images/*"],
+   "admin/*": ["../static/gsAdmin/*"]
  },
