Jekyll Relative Links
A Jekyll plugin to convert relative links to markdown files to their rendered equivalents.
What it does
Let's say you have a link like this in a markdown file:
[foo](bar.md)
While that would render as a valid link on GitHub.com, it would not be a valid link on Pages. Instead, this plugin converst that link to:
[foo](bar.html)
It even work with pages with custom permalinks. If you have bar.md with the following:
---
permalink: /bar/
---
# bar
Then [foo](bar.md) will render as [foo](/bar/).
Why
Because markdown files rendered by GitHub Pages should behave similar to Markdown files rendered on GitHub.com
