When running rr from a subdirectory of the project, commands now work correctly by: 1. Walking up the directory tree to find .rr.yaml (similar to git, npm, cargo) 2. Using the project root (where .rr.yaml is located) as the working directory for sync operations instead of the current directory The config discovery already had parent walking logic, but it had a bug where it stopped at the git root BEFORE checking if .rr.yaml exists there. This fix reorders the check to find config at the git root. Fixes #154 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

When running
rrfrom a subdirectory of the project (e.g.,myapp/src/components/instead ofmyapp/), commands fail or sync incorrectly because rr uses the current working directory as the project root.Solution
Walk up the directory tree to find
