Prerequisites

• Have you searched for existing issues (open and close) to see if the bug or feature request has already been reported?
• If this is a bug report, are you running the latest version of Assemble? If not, please update to the latest version and verify that the issue still occurs before proceding.
• Have you read the Contributing Guide? <-- Broken link
• Have you reviewed the project readme (you might find advice about creating new issues)?
• Are you creating an issue in the correct repository? (For example, if your issue is related to [grunt-assemble][] or [handlebars-helpers][], you will want to create the issue in that project).

Ready? Great! Please provide the following details:

description

When invoking assemble from the shell and passing the --cwd option, assemble correctly changes process.cwd to the specified directory, but app.cwd still returns the original cwd.

/dir/src/assemblefile.js

const app = require('assemble')();
// ...
module.exports = app;

# Note: /dir contains package.json
$ cd /dir
$ npx assemble --cwd=src

The problem appears to be that the original cwd gets cached. I had plastered breakpoints all over base-cwd/index.js but was unable to capture the first assignment. Whenever I got to break in either get or set, cached had already assigned the initial cwd.
