How to block typescript 2.0 from walking up all parent directories while resolving modules?

The official documentation specifies that node_modules in current directory and all parents will be traversed unless you specify typeRoots.

So in theory, the answer should be this:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "typeRoots": [
      "./node_modules/@types"
    ]
  }
}

Since you still want to include the types from the current directory.

Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work correctly for me.
