dotenv should look up in parent directories for .env

[cdignam-segment]

My .env file is at the root of my project, but when running tests, the current working directory is within test modules.

This would match the behavior of https://github.com/dotenv-rs/dotenv/tree/3c1a77bc95821777e5ceb996c5e0b082f2a3ea38#usage and https://github.com/theskumar/python-dotenv.

Yep, you're right. Will bring that feature in as a breaking change

@joho I made a PR to resolve this issue: #166

It would be great to get your feedback!

Hi, any updates?

[joho]

I've been umming and ahhing on this one. I know I was very supportive when originally opened, but ever since I've been worrying about directory traversal attacks.

I'm about to close the door on breaking changes (see #182) but will hopefully include this one before I do (if I can come to comfort on the traversal risks)
