I have created
my-repo-root/sets.conf:
[zucca-sets]
class = portage.sets.files.StaticFileSet
multiset = true
directory = ./sets
name_pattern = ${name}-zucca
... and I have a directory sets at the repository root too.
The directory option doesn't work as intended. So I'd need to reference the repository location.
I'd guess I just need a right variable for this to work like %(REPO_LOCATION) or something like it. I just cannot find such information from portage documentation.

Any help?

According to the source of StaticFileSet it supports a ${repository:repository_name} variable to access the path of a named repository for both "filename" and "directory" options. There is however no way to reference the "current" repository as the sets module has no concept of that.

Dang... So close. Although using that variable should work in almost every case.
I was hopeful and tried to use %(repo.location)s, but it resulted in error when running emerge --list-sets.
