[MERGED] Car Proto details missing?

[SarvagyaVaish]

I am trying to find more details about the Car proto so that I can create my own car. I see there is a car-library with some information about libraries. But, specifically, I am looking for information about the proto.

However, in previous versions of Webots documentation, there was this really helpful car.md file. I'm curious where I should go to find updated information about the Car proto?

https://github.com/cyberbotics/webots/tree/released/projects/vehicles/protos/abstract/Car.proto
redirects to
https://github.com/cyberbotics/webots/blob/released/projects/vehicles/protos/abstract/Car.proto
(aka, the tree URL redirects to the blob URL)

Perhaps the webots cloud url resolver isn't handling redirects correctly?

Nvm.. it's not the resolver. Traced it to this file that defines variables used in the md file.

webots/docs/js/showdown-extensions.js

Line 45 in e7fd629

github_tree: `https://github.com/cyberbotics/webots/tree/` + branch,

Any suggestions? Happy to contribute a fix.

I believe tree should be replaced with blob in case we refer to a file. However, it should remain tree if ever we refer to a folder. So probably we should maintain two variables, github_tree and github_blob are use the first one for folders and the second one for files. Can you propose a PR implementing this?

[SarvagyaVaish]

Yeah sure!
