setting TART_EXECUTOR_HOST_DIR: true yields "A directory sharing device configuration is invalid."

basically the issue in the title.

Both host and vm are ventura, so TART_EXECUTOR_HOST_DIR should work according to the docs.

Any idea what's wrong?

update: host is ventura 13.5 and vm is ventura 13.4

Do you use Ventura prior to 13.3 version by any chance? Mounting volumes started working more or less stable in Ventura starting with 13.3.

no, host is ventura 13.5 and the vm is ventura 13.4 (its currently based on ghcr.io/cirruslabs/macos-ventura-xcode, but i adjusted it using packer)

1. Which Tart version are you running?

2. Are there other Tart-specific settings that you use in GitLab Runner's config.toml (specifically, {config,prepare,run,cleanup}_args in [runners.custom] section) or in .gitlab-ci.yml (specifically, those starting with TART_*)?

3. Could you try minimizing your example down to using a non-customized and publicly available image like ghcr.io/cirruslabs/macos-ventura-base:latest and share your .gitlab-ci.yml here?

   Because the following .gitlab-ci.yml works just fine for me on macOS 13.5 (host) and Tart 1.9.2:

   image: ghcr.io/cirruslabs/macos-ventura-base:latest
   
   job:
     script:
       - uname -a
   
   variables:
     TART_EXECUTOR_ALWAYS_PULL: "false"
     TART_EXECUTOR_HOST_DIR: "true"

Closing for now because we weren't able able to reproduce this issue.

Feel free to re-open if new details will re-surface 🙌
