FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Users/Workspace/Projects/lambdas/lambdas'

(venv) [user@cmp ~/Workspace/Projects ]$ chalice --project-dir ./lambdas/ local
```
app.py is in a directory named lambdas.
Why does it show two lambdas at the end of error?
It however works fine with complete file path.

Research direction

Start in chalice/cli/__init__.py at the os.chdir(project_dir) call shown in the traceback, then reproduce `chalice --project-dir ./lambdas/ local` from the parent directory. Trace how the relative project path is resolved; done means the command locates the existing app directory without duplicating `lambdas` and preserves the working complete-path behavior.
