…ectory` Use a plain `parse_path` for uv-specific override variables (like `UV_PYTHON_BIN_DIR` and `UV_TOOL_BIN_DIR`) that accepts both relative and absolute paths, while keeping `parse_xdg_path` for XDG standard variables to comply with the XDG Base Directory Specification. Closes astral-sh#17364

Thanks for the change! I have one thought:
| /// Unlike [`parse_xdg_path`], this function accepts both relative and absolute paths, | ||
| /// for use with uv-specific override variables that are not subject to the XDG specification. | ||
| fn parse_path(path: OsString) -> Option<PathBuf> { | ||
| if path.is_empty() { |

Why special-case an empty string? Couldn't that usefully mean "the cwd itself"?

It's for consistency with the rest of our variables. People want to the ability to "unset" a variable using an empty value. I think you should use . to target the CWD.
