Description

this is with npm sass .

relative import fails when it starts with 2 dots @import ../some-style.

I also checked how fs.existsSync handles paths with .. in it. on linux fs.existsSync fails to find the file if the path contains .., on windows it works...

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate why fs.existsSync fails on Linux for paths containing '..' when symlinks are present. Check the Node.js file system behavior and the legacy JS API's path resolution logic.
