The propellor wrapper checks if ./config.hs exists; if so it runs using the configuration in the current directory, rather than ~/.propellor/config.hs

2016-11-12T05:34:19Z

The config,hs name now seems a bit badly chosen, propellor.hs would be less ambiguous. To avoid accidentially running with a config.hs for something else, the file content has to contain "Propellor". Note that checkRepoUpToDate is only run for ~/.propellor/. I guess propellor configs in other directories won't have been set up that way, and it would take some changes to make that not hardcode use of dotPropellor. There's a new security boundary here, since running propellor looks at the cwd, whose contents might not be user the user's control. The security checks I added for this seem pretty good, but even if they can be bypassed, this is not much different than `make` using the Makefile in cwd.
