relURL is stripping the baseURL path

[mattcone]

Hey there! I believe we're experiencing a bug that is possibly related to #9994 and #10002. Someone actually left a couple comments related to this that I think accurately describe the bug:

• Bug in relURL with leading slash when baseURL includes a subdirectory #9994 (comment)
• Fix relURL with leading slash when baseURL includes a subdirectory #10002 (comment)

Prior to v101, we had this set up and it was working:

baseURL = "https://example.com/foo"

{{ "/images/logo.svg" | relURL }}

http://localhost:1313/foo/images/logo.svg

Now, after the upgrade to v101, we see this:

baseURL = "https://example.com/foo"

{{ "/images/logo.svg" | relURL }}

http://localhost:1313/images/logo.svg

The foo part of baseURL is being stripped out by relURL.

What version of Hugo are you using (hugo version)?

hugo v0.101.0+extended darwin/amd64 BuildDate=unknown

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Yes 😄

{{ "/images/logo.svg" | relURL }}

http://localhost:1313/foo/images/logo.svg

This was a bug fix in 101 making relURL work the same as absURL.

The gist of it is, res starting with a / is considered relative to the server host, remove that and it will work. Your breakage is unfortunate, but it was wrong before.
