Description

I am running task in watch mode, with method timestamp.

I have added temp task dir via taskfile, so no .task dir created in workspace.

env:
  TASK_TEMP_DIR: ./.cache/task

then i am runing task -w taskname --inbterval=1s

expectation: .cache/task created
reality .task created

Example Taskfile

version: "3"

env:
  TASK_TEMP_DIR: ./.cache/task

tasks:
  default:
    cmd: task --list --sort=none
    silent: true
  taskname:
    sources:
    - ./**/*.go
    method: timestamp 
    cmd: go build .

Possible solution? Switch this two steps? (i havn't checked readTaskFile tbh)

	if err := e.setupTempDir(); err != nil {
		return err
	}
	if err := e.readTaskfile(node); err != nil {
		return err
	}

You need to set that in the calling environment (i.e. your shell). Or use one of the other methods.

$ TASK_TEMP_DIR=./.cache/task task
