Tartufo does not put exclusions in report file when using --output-format report when repo is not the present working directory

[mlamarca-godaddy]

🐛 Bug Report

If I run tartufo to scan a directory from one level above my repo, it reads the tartufo.toml file to apply exclusions, but doesn't include any exclusions in the report file.

To Reproduce

This command:

tartufo --output-format report -v scan-local-repo ${GITHUBREPO}

Creates this output:

Tartufo Scan Results (Time: 2022-12-19T14:51:38.266660)
All clear. No secrets detected.

Configuration:
  version:             3.3.1
  entropy:             Enabled
    sensitivity: 75
  regex:               Enabled

Excluded entropy patterns:

In this case, ${GITHUBREPO} is set to "puppet"
The local directory structure is setup as follows:

Directory tartufo is being run from:

/mnt/c/Users/mlamarca/Documents/GitHub

Directory repo is located in:

/mnt/c/Users/mlamarca/Documents/GitHub/puppet

Expected Behavior

If I run tartufo from within the repo directory, I get the expected output:

tartufo --output-format report -v scan-local-repo .
