Summary of Changes

Hello @dearblue, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request reverts a previous modification to the File.absolute_path function, specifically disabling the automatic expansion of tilde (~) characters within paths. The change ensures that File.absolute_path provides a consistent absolute path resolution without the side effect of home directory expansion, which is typically handled by File.expand_path. Accompanying tests have been introduced to validate this corrected behavior.

Highlights

• Revert File.absolute_path logic: The core logic for File.absolute_path has been reverted to prevent it from automatically expanding tilde (~) characters to the user's home directory. This change ensures that File.absolute_path focuses solely on resolving absolute paths without performing user-specific directory expansions.
• New Test Cases: New test cases have been added to explicitly verify that File.absolute_path does not expand tilde (~) characters, confirming the intended behavior of the revert.
