Hydra 1.2 introduced hydra.job.chdir. This config controls whether Hydra changes the runtime working directory to the job's output directory. The current default is False.

If you want to keep the old Hydra behavior, please set hydra.job.chdir=True explicitly for your application.

For more information about hydra.job.chdir, see Output/Working directory and Job Configuration - hydra.job.chdir.
