From ea1d838980f4afe457a48773dfe142af58aba8bd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "NĂ­colas F. R. A. Prado" Date: Thu, 28 Jan 2021 01:01:25 +0000 Subject: docs: Enable usage of relative paths to docs on automarkup MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Previously, a cross-reference to another document could only be created by writing the full path to the document starting from the Documentation/ directory. Extend this to also allow relative paths to be used. A relative path would be just the path, like ../filename.rst, while the absolute path still needs to start from Documentation, like Documentation/filename.rst. As part of this change, the .rst extension is now required for both types of paths, since not requiring it would cause the regex to be too generic.
