[JENKINS-68856] Remote API should use paths for affected files relative to specified source directory #3092
Description
When setting the sourceDirectory option to be a path relative to the workspace (due to a checkout to a subdirectory), the source files are still shown with a path relative to the workspace. I would expect them to have a path relative to the sourceDirectory given. This is relevant when sending the filenames to a code review system that expect them to be relative to the checkout directory.
