"View Book Source" link always points to the "base" dir instead of "base + subdir"
The "View Book Source" link at the bottom left corner always points to the base directory, which is fine if the docs source files resides in top level directory. However, if a subdirectory is defined for source files, it should (ideally) links to the "base+subdir".
Example of my setup : top level directory: https://github.com/kulbhushanchand/BioNES book_source directory: https://github.com/kulbhushanchand/BioNES/tree/master/docs_source build directory: https://github.com/kulbhushanchand/BioNES/tree/master/docs
Setup:
bookdown::bs4_book:
theme:
primary: "#637238"
repo:
base: https://github.com/kulbhushanchand/BioNES
branch: master
subdir: docs_source
css: style.css
Link in question:
@maelle you added the feature of subdir in #1036
It seems it was chosen to point book source to the main repo. However, it makes also sense to point to the subdir part of the repo when subdir is provided.
Do you agree ?
It might make sense indeed!
If not and in any case https://github.com/rstudio/bookdown/issues/1011 is about adding more flexibility incl. links for the left and right sidebars so users who disagree with whatever the default becomes could still get another behaviour.
