>>> import shutil

source code of make_archive()
=====================================================
756    save_cwd = os.getcwd()
757    if root_dir is not None:
758        if logger is not None:
759            logger.debug("changing into '%s'", root_dir)
760        base_name = os.path.abspath(base_name)
761        if not dry_run:
762            os.chdir(root_dir)
...
...
782    try:
783        filename = func(base_name, base_dir, **kwargs)
784    finally:
=====================================================

base_name is set before chdir, so the archive always be created in cwd, whether set root_dir or not.
so, line 760 should be move below line 762
