What?
Adds a note to the
--debug-build-pathssection of the CLI docs clarifying that route groups must be included in file paths.Why?
When using
--debug-build-paths, users need to include route group folders (e.g.,(marketing)) in the file paths they pass. This isn't obvious from the existing documentation — route groups are stripped from URLs at runtime but must be present in file paths for this CLI option to work correctly.Addresses feedback from a docs comment noting that "Route groups are also necessary, should be inferred from file paths, but it is not straightforward from reading this."
How?
Added a "Good to know" callout with an example showing how to reference a page inside a route group:
next build --debug-build-paths="app/(marketing)/about/page.tsx"Slack Thread
