Comment:
Hi Roy, thanks for the report.
A small, "matching HttpRequest.path_info" clause in the URL Dispatcher
docs seems reasonable, yes.
I'll accept on that basis. Are you up for doing a PR?
I'm not convinced by the other two cases.
* The debug 404 page has both full URL and the path that attempted to
match in plain site. It's not often they are different but, I would expect
the difference there to be noticed, and for folks to know enough about
their app to work out what's they're missing.
* `STATIC_URL` is the URL prefix for your static files. When there's a web
server in play you need to configure it to serve the files in
`STATIC_ROOT` from that URL — As I read it the sentence you quote it seems
correct: the URL prefix should match `STATIC_URL`
"It's not often that they're different..." — You have some ''mount point''
going on, what is that, if you don't mind me asking? Is this a local
development server? Which one? Thanks
