Is it possible to configure the dist directory (my CI shares data between steps and I'd like to output data to dist/build-id)?

Found it! <https://www.pantsbuild.org/2.21/docs/using-pants/troubleshooting-common-issues#how-to-change-your-cache-directory>

Can I pass env variables to `pants_distdir` ?

I was missing the s in `"dist/%(<http://env.CF|env.CF>_BUILD_ID)s"` . Yay it worked

You can also set it *as an* environment variable, i.e, `PANTS_DISTDIR=foo pants ...`
