Description
This PR fixes an issue where pixi resolves symlinked
pixi.tomlfiles to their real location, causing the.pixi/directory to be created relative to the symlink target instead of the symlink itself. This broke common dotfiles management workflows where users symlink config files from a git repository to their home directory.Fixes #4907
How Has This Been Tested?
Test was added to
crates/pixi_manifest/src/manifests/provenance.rsand I tested the described workflow locally with the generated binary.AI Disclosure
