+# Change Base Directory Without Detaching
+
+In [Change Base Directory Of Existing
+Session](change-base-directory-of-existing-session.md), I described how you can
+detach from an existing tmux session and re-attach with a new base directory
+specified.
+
+We can do nearly the same thing within the current tmux session without first
+detaching. The command is going to look much the same, but we will execute it
+from the tmux command prompt.
+
+Start the prompt by hitting `<prefix>:` and then enter the following command:
+
+```
+:attach-session -t . -c /path/to/base/directory
+```
+
+Here the `-t` specifies what session we are going to attach to. By giving it
+`.`, we tell it that we want to attach to the current session. The `-c`
+specifies our new base directory.
+
+Hit enter and then try opening a new window or pane to see that the new base
+directory has taken effect.
