Faraday removes paths in base url

[runemadsen]

I'm having huge problems preserving the paths in my Faraday base url:

conn = Faraday.new(:url => 'http://example.com/api')
conn.get '/index' #=> GET http://example.com/index

Shouldn't this call http://example.com/api/index?

This article suggests so:

Do I have to do anything to not let Faraday strip out the /api in my base url?

Also, I'm running Faraday 0.8.8 and Ruby 1.9.3p286. All docs say that Faraday shouldn't behave like this, but I'm seeing it on my mac, and on Linux virtual machines.

conn.get 'index'

(note the lack of leading slash)

If you use the leading slash, it means an absolute path, i.e. "discard whatever path is configured by the URL prefix of this connection".

Oh god, you're right. I was so sure I tried this a million times. Thanks a bunch.
