Vitest Workspaces Bug

Problem

Why is define not working in the project level config?

Expected Behavior

Define should define these globals for tests just like it does for a typical Vite build.

Some Questions

  1. Why were Vitest workspaces made to ignore a root config? It's mentioned in the documentation that it is ignored. It seems like a desirable behavior for a monorepo full of similarly designed libraries.

  2. Why is the root config loaded at all if it is ignored by Workspaces?

  3. Using the /packages/ts/** splat seems to change the config loading behavior compared to /packages/ts/* in a way that's tough to describe. Using a pattern at all that's different from a single * seems to result in this. It's subtle and should be explicitly documented in my opinion.
