Testing local deployments for GitHub pages doesn't work since no `basePath` can be set about serve HOT 6 OPEN

I see. So it would explicitly not surface issues related to wrong base path usage (e.g. an accidental reference to toplevel instead of the base path) since the same files would be at root level as well.

I would also love this, but not sure if anyone is looking into it :)

from serve.

This can be achieved with a symbolic link. For example, if my public folder is named dist, I would call:

ln -snf "`pwd`/dist" dist/<basePath> && serve dist

The pwd call is needed in order to create the link with an absolute path.

Hm, maybe I’m misunderstanding what you mean — the files would still be served without the basePath as part of the URL, right?

from serve.

@hybridherbst They would be served both with and w/o the base path. For testing local deployments (which is what we're trying to achieve), this should be enough.
