We added tilde expansion for note.template so users can share template files between notebooks in #431.
We however overlooked that tilde / home dir expansion was already being implemented in isolation for the global notebook directory in
container.go
.I've refactored that code into the function @hugo created, and also made a few optimisations to it (and renamed it as it now expands more than just tildes).
I made a decision to not pass up the
err
fromResolveHomeDir()
and wrap it instead, as there is only one error that would be passed up, so it makes each call to it unnecessarily verbose? Very open and interested to know if that's not the best idea.Otherwise, am I overlooking anything, have I overdone / underdone anything, or is it looking alright?
