running buffalo build with -o flag deletes working directory

[sapiens-sapide]

I ran buffalo build to build my app and everything worked fine. But, when I ran buffalo build -o custom_binary_name the command failed with a ……/……/main.go: no such file or directory and my working directory has been completed erased !

Buffalo version is: v0.10.2.

Issue encountered on mac osx and freebsd.

Well, it definitely shouldn’t do that. Yikes. The problem is it clears out the build directory, which is also your working directory at that point. Obviously it shouldn’t do that if you specify the working directory. The work around is to do something like `-o bin/custom-name`

Thanks for your reply. It should have a safeguard to prevent this unexpected behaviour.
