zip action with 'include' option runs at wrong level, produces empty archive about fastlane

[manminusone]

The problem here is that the action code moves one directory up during execution of the Zip command. See source here: https://github.com/fastlane/fastlane/blob/master/fastlane/lib/fastlane/actions/zip.rb#L36

So in your example the Zip command is run in the directory /Users/Username, which is why it can't find the text files. You can prove this by chdir'ing to your project directory and executing the command that Fastlane prints out: zip -r /Users/Username/ProjectName/test.zip . -i ./x.txt ./y.txt

This caused a big headache for me when I switched to Fastlane because I needed this exact functionality, so I just ended up writing my own zip action with code changed to create the archive without moving up one directory.
