~leave_here alias for 'not is_included' about conda-devenv HOT 6 OPEN

My bad, you are right root is relative to the current devenv file.

Maybe we could deprecate the root variable naming and name it file_location (or devenv_file_location) since there is a request to support referencing devenv files from the web and use the alias is_top_level = not is_included to avoid root related terms.

Yes.
Our brains have problems to process negatives.

leave_here...
The first thing that come to my mind is an is_root but I think it is much similar to root(anoter var already present).
@nicoddemus do you have any suggestion about a variable name?

As a temporary workaround you could add (maybe at the top) {% set leave_here = not is_included %} and then use leave_here as a variable normally.

Not at the moment :/

Yes. I already do something like that #112 (comment)

Well, root should be ~root_pth.

To use 'root' language, at_root, inclusion_root, at_inclusion_root? The user would have to understand the processing of the devenvs as a tree where each devenv is a 'root' for included devenvs (not saying it's a bad thing).

Yeah there are two 'tree' concepts to deal with: the filesystem and the inclusion tree.
