GitLab 8.7 breaks relative links in wiki?

Let's say I had a wiki page that goes a few folder levels deep and had these 2 pages

http://mygitlab/myproj/wikis/docs/specs/specs-home.md
http://mygitlab/myproj/wikis/docs/specs/myspec.md

and from within that specs-home page, i wanted a link to the myspec.md file in the same folder, I would define it like this:

[My Spec](./myspec)

However, since 8.7 a few days ago, now all my such links are relative to the home page of the wiki???

IE that above link now resolves to http://mygitlab/myproj/wikis/myspec.md which doesn't exist??? it should (and used to) point to the /docs/specs/ sub folder?

I have hundreds of these that now are broken.

I couldn't find any other submitted Issues on this....

Did I doing something wrong?

thanks, Chris.

TODO

  • #16568 (closed) Non-hierarchical links are rewritten to the wiki root
    • Add documentation to reflect current linking behavior in the wiki
    • Make sure specs for wiki linking behavior are as thorough as possible
    • Add an issue to bring wiki linking behaviour up to speed with the docs (including preview page)
