Where are Copado CLI configuration files located?

The configuration files for the Copado CLI are correctly located in a folder named .copado within the user's root folder. This is an important aspect of the CLI design as it allows individual users to maintain personalized settings and configurations for their development environment without interfering with other users or the system as a whole.

By storing the configuration in the user's root folder, Copado ensures that each user has a separate configuration that can be tailored to their specific needs, thereby enhancing the user experience and making it easier to manage different projects and environments. This separation also improves security and organization, as it keeps the settings contained within the user's space rather than exposing them publicly or affecting other users on the same system.

This approach contrasts with other proposed locations, such as a public directory, which would not be suitable for sensitive configuration data, or the system configuration directory, where configurations might apply globally and could lead to conflicts or confusion among multiple users. The focus on user-specific settings aligns well with modern software practices that prioritize user customization and isolated environments.
