buildbot shows wrong $PWD in environment variables

Reported by: slinkp Owned by: dustin
Priority: major Milestone: 0.7.10
Version: 0.7.6 Keywords:
Cc: dustin

Description

The web display for buildbot steps shows all environment variables including $PWD. The $PWD shown does not match the "in dir" shown before the environment variables. This is confusing.

I spent a long time wondering why my shell commands were failing with "No such file or directory", because I believed the displayed $PWD and didn't notice the "in dir" up top.

I've noticed this too. Probably the best option is just to set $PWD when changing to the build directory, so that it indicates the actual PWD. Want to write up a patch?
