Research direction

Start by tracing how the CLI currently parses and loads git-ref and HTTP URL CRD dependencies. Define the local dependency behavior for both a file and a directory, then verify that CRDs from local paths are handled alongside the existing dependency types.

Description

enhancement stale
What problem are you facing?

CRDs can be added as dependencies using a git ref or HTTP URL, but not from a local path.

How could Crossplane help solve your problem?

Add another dependency type: local, that points to a local file or directory containing CRDs. This is useful if CRDs live in the same repository as the Crossplane project.
