spring.cloud.config.server.git.basedir is ignored

See original GitHub issue

Steps to reproduce:

Create a Spring Cloud Config Server application with the configuration:

server:
  port: 8888
spring:
  cloud:
    config:
      server:
        git:
          basedir: "/some/other/directory/here"
          uri: git@example.com:foo/base.git
          repos:
            type1: git@example.com:foo/type1.git
            type2:
              pattern: '*/type2*'
              uri: git@example.com:foo/type2.git

Run the application

Expected:

config-repo-* directories are created under /some/other/directory/here

Actual:

config-repo-* directories are created under /private/var/folders/<some other directories/config-repo-* on Mac OS x

Per http://cloud.spring.io/spring-cloud-config/spring-cloud-config.html#_version_control_backend_filesystem_use this should work. Unless I have the config wrong somehow

@spencergibb I’m using ~~the latest version~~ version 1.2.3.RELEASE. It wasn’t obvious from the docs that the property isn’t a global. What probably happened is that I set the basedir but didn’t try to request any configurations from base.git.

Just to be clear, basedir has to be specified per repo? So in my example I would additionally need properties named: spring.cloud.config.server.git.repos.type1.basedir and spring.cloud.config.server.git.repos.type2.basedir? If so do you think it’s worth updating the documentation with this information? I can create a PR
