@JackBoosY Here is some usage. It seems to work as intended. set VCPKG_OVERLAY_PORTS=C:\Workspace\a;C:\Workspace\b
vcpkg install test
rem Installs: C:\Workspace\a\test
set VCPKG_OVERLAY_PORTS=C:\Workspace\b;C:\Workspace\a
vcpkg install test
rem Installs: C:\Workspace\b\testexport VCPKG_OVERLAY_PORTS=/mnt/c/Workspace/a:/mnt/c/Workspace/b
vcpkg install test
# Installs: /mnt/c/Workspace/a
export VCPKG_OVERLAY_PORTS=/mnt/c/Workspace/b:/mnt/c/Workspace/a
vcpkg install test
# Installs: /mnt/c/Workspace/bEdit: Overriding directories in |

@strega-nil: probably should follow up with another one for VCPKG_OVERLAY_TRIPLETS. But that one is not so important as this one. |
