project detection: .latexmkrc in higher level parent directory about texlab HOT 2 CLOSED

There have been bug fix concerning the ~/.latexmkrc in the home folder, but it seems that the .latexmkrc file in higher level parent director can also override the detection. Expected behavior or bug?

This is currently the expected behavior and is required to handle cases like these

.latexmkrc
src/
    main.tex
    subfolder/
        child1.tex
        child2.tex

where the directory of the main source file is not equal to the compile directory.

Unfortunately, the (working) directory passed by the editor cannot be relied upon in most cases (especially with editors like vim)

thanks for the explanation!
