Navigation of root paths with 'basePath' prop

[upreeti]

We have an application that uses the basePath prop to prefix all the routes. However, when we navigate to the root URL, we get a 404 error since the basePath is not prefixed (e.g., when basePath is 'base', localhost:8080/ and localhost:8080/base show a 404 since we do not end up on localhost:8080/base/).

To get around this issue, we added a patch fix with a rootPaths prop, which ignores the basePath for certain routes (/, and /base in our case), and we were wondering if we could upstream this change or if there is a better way to fix this.

Our patch fix (no basePath if rootPaths includes pathname in this line):
const matchedRoute = rootPaths.includes(pathname) ? execRouteMatching(routes[i], pathname, queryParamObject, '') : execRouteMatching(routes[i], pathname, queryParamObject, basePath);
