I'm relatively new to ROS and I sometime find myself accidentally running colcon build in the wrong folder, i.e. not in the worspace root folder. This leads to build, log, and install folders in the wrong locations.

I have two ideas on how this could be resolved:

  1. Warn and abort the build
  2. Notify, but automatically build in the root folder

Either feature would also require some kind of force flag.
What do you think of this?
