Issue 種別: feature
難度: 3
推定時間: half day
活動状況: active
明確さ: clear
前提条件: Go programming languageUnderstanding of XDG Base Directory specification
初心者向け度: 50
調査方針: Investigate how OpenTofu currently locates configuration files (e.g., tofurc). Check for any existing XDG related code in the configuration loading module. If implementing full XDG spec, modify the config loader to look in $XDG CONFIG HOME/opentofu/tofurc with fallback to ~/.config/opentofu/tofurc when the env var is unset. Alternatively, if maintainers prefer not to implement, update documentation to clarify that OpenTofu does not follow XDG and uses a different path.
