 to refer to local files from inside a definition file anyway as this reduces reproducibility.
 However, common directories are available by default. For others, care must be taken. In short:

 If the current directory is inside (or equal to) one of the above (except `/tmp`), then relative paths
 for container and definition work as the script changes to the VM equivalent of the current
