Task creates spurious brand new directories on disk with backslashes preceding every space #2208
Description
Description
I have a Taskfile in a parent directory, and another Taskfile in a subdirectory of the parent, using the includes syntax.
The file names / directory names contain space characters (on macOS).
When running a task from the from the sub-directory Taskfile, Task ends up creating brand new spurious directories on disk.
Looks like it’s reading the full path, escaping it incorrectly, and then passing it on to os.MkdirAll.
This has the side-effect that Task can no longer find binaries in my chosen directory (./my-binary under USER_WORKING_DIR), because now it’s searching the wrongly-created path instead.
