Redirects can be created with a `_redirects` file with the following format:
```
# Comment
from to [status]
```
* Lines starting with `#` are ignored
* `from` - the path to redirect from (Note: repository and branch names are removed from request URLs)
* `to` - the path or URL to redirect to
* `status` - status code to use when redirecting (default 301)
## Status codes
* `200` - returns content from specified path (no external URLs) without changing the URL (rewrite)
* `301` - Moved Permanently (Permanent redirect)
* `302` - Found (Temporary redirect)
## Examples
### Simple redirect
Redirects a specific path.
```
/example https://example.com/ 301
/path /other-path 301
```
### SPA (single-page application) rewrite
Redirects all paths to `/index.html` for single-page apps.
```
/* /index.html 200
```
### Splats
Redirects every path under `/articles` to `/posts` while keeping the path.
```
/articles/* /posts/:splat 302
```
Example: `/articles/2022/10/12/post-1/` -> `/posts/2022/10/12/post-1/`
