Why does accessing base automatically add ‘/’ after the route?

[LeeSamFong]

Reproduction

https://github.com/LeeSamFong/vue-router-demo

Steps to reproduce the bug

1. Visit: http://localhost:5173/dist/aaa

2. Observe that the browser address bar changes to: http://localhost:5173/dist/aaa/ There is an extra / at the end

   /dist/aaa -> /dist/aaa/

Expected behavior

When base is not the default value, / is not automatically added when accessing the home page.

Actual behavior

---

When my base is not the default value, after accessing the root route /dist/aaa, / will be automatically added at the end, becoming ->/dist/aaa/

Additional information

No response

It’s a convention, similar to example.com becoming example.com/.

[LeeSamFong]

But if I don't set the base, http://localhost:5173 will not be appended with /, and it will be automatically removed when '/' is included. Behaving inconsistently.

So is this a bug?

it's not a bug, the browser hides the slash but if you check location, it's there
