Hello,

I'm using Org-mode's clock feature and it's really great!

One thing bothers me: the links generated by the ":link t" option on the 
clocktable [0] are absolute [1] and it causes problems when using the 
same file on two different machines:

#+BEGIN: clocktable :scope file :maxlevel 3 :link t
#+CAPTION: Clock summary at [2024-08-08 Thu 11:02]
| Headline     | Time   |      |
|--------------+--------+------|
| *Total time* | *4:32* |      |
|--------------+--------+------|
| 
[[file:/home/runner/work/org-test/org-test/README.org::Project][Project]] 
      | 4:32   |      |
| \_  [[file:/home/runner/work/org-test/org-test/README.org::Task 
1][Task 1]]   |        | 3:30 |
| \_  [[file:/home/runner/work/org-test/org-test/README.org::Task 
3][Task 3]]   |        | 1:02 |
#+END:

I've tried adjusting that with `(setq org-link-file-path-type 
'relative)` but it doesn't seem to have any effect on the automatically 
generated clocktable (I ran emacs -nw README.org so the PWD should be 
correct).

Is there anything I could try to make the links relative so that they 
look like this: [[file:README.org::Task 3][Task 3]] ?

I've made a repository for reproducing this case: 
https://github.com/wiktor-k/org-test and I'm using emacs 29.4 and org 
9.6.15.

Thank you for your time and help!

Kind regards,
Wiktor

Absolute file path is currently hard-coded in
`org-clock-get-table-data'. I agree that it would make sense to respect
`org-link-file-path-type'.

Someone has to factor out link path format from `org-insert-link' and
re-use it.
