Description

Why is it not possible to supply two docker-compose.yml-files from different directories to the DockerComposeContainer-Constructor?

e.g. like:

new DockerComposeContainer(new File("first/directory/docker-compose.yml"), new File("first/docker-compose.override.yml"))

There is always occuring the a FileNotFoundError in the containerized docker environment.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the DockerComposeContainer constructor to understand how it resolves file paths for docker compose files. Look at how the files are passed to the Docker environment and why files from different directories cause FileNotFoundError. Consider modifying the constructor or the underlying logic to support absolute paths or different directories.
