It just converts relative paths to absolute paths. Unrooted paths (e.g. `..\..\See\I\Do\Not\Have\A\Root`) are first joined with the current directory (as returned by `Get-Location`). .EXAMPLE Resolve-FullPath -Path 'C:\Projects\Carbon\Test\..\Carbon\FileSystem.ps1' Returns `C:\Projects\Carbon\Carbon\FileSystem.ps1`. .EXAMPLE Resolve-FullPath -Path 'C:\Projects\Carbon\..\I\Do\Not\Exist' Returns `C:\Projects\I\Do\Not\Exist`. .EXAMPLE Resolve-FullPath -Path ..\..\Foo\..\Bar Because the `Path` isn't rooted, joins `Path` with the current directory (as returned by `Get-Location`), and returns the full path. If the current directory is `C:\Projects\Carbon`, returns `C:\Bar`. #> [CmdletBinding()] param( [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)] [string] # The path to resolve.
