--localconf does nothing and --jitsuconf is broken

[hyperscientist]

I tried using alternative config files and failed every time.

Looking at the source code it seems like --localconf switch is dead - there's no code that would do anything with it.

Sadly also --jitsuconf is broken. Problem is with lib/jitsu/config.js file.

try {
  jitsu.config.env().file({
    file: jitsu.argv.jitsuconf || jitsu.argv.j || '.jitsuconf',
    dir: process.env.HOME,
    search: true
  });
}

This code will always start look for a jitsuconf file in home directory, while usually it is the case that we have project specific jitsu config inside project directory.

We can temporarly work around it, by launching jitsu deploy like so (if our project directory is inside home directory):
jitsu deploy --jitsuconf Workspace/myProject/.jitsuconf
(of course it's just an example)
