Launch configuration fails to cwd

[bc0n]

When I execute a Julia file, the repl working directory stays at my vscode workspace instead of changing to the file's folder, despite having set cwd to any of

{
  "name": "JuliaCurrentFile",
  "type": "julia",
  "request":"launch",
  "program": "${file}",
  "stopOnEntry": false,
  "cwd": "${fileDirname}",  // the current opened file's folder path
// "cwd": "${fileDirnameBasename}",  // the current opened file's folder name
// "cwd": "${relativeFileDirname}",  //  the current opened file's dirname relative to workspaceFolder
// "cwd": "${fileWorkspaceFolder}", // the current opened file's workspace folder
// "cwd": "ben", //something should complain about a non-existent folder 
  "juliaEnv": "${command:activeJuliaEnvironment}"
}

The file path looks like .../vscodeWorkspace/subfolder/currentFile.jl. In order for currentFile to execute correctly, the repl needs to be set to subfolder, but it remains at vscodeWorkspace.
Of course, I can work around this by adding cd(@__DIR__) to currentFile.jl, but the cwd option does not appear to be respected. Was cwd in #102 or #1348 ever merged?

Thanks

I'm having the same problem.
Can't figure out how to set the cwd for the REPL process
