In the Gerrit file system plugin, a folder URL and a file URL have different format. They both use "/" represent the hierarchy of a resource, which is good for translating a relative URL into an absolute one. However all folder URLs start from "/list" and all file URLS start from "/contents".

For example a readme.md file URL under a repo master is something like:
***/contents/myRepo/refs%252Fheads%252Fmaster/readme.md

And a folder URL under a repo master is something like:
***/list/myRepo/refs%252Fheads%252Fmaster/folder123

The issue happens in this case:
If in the readme.md file , I have a line like below
[Please refer to this folder](folder123)

The relative URL "folder123" will be translated to ***/contents/myRepo/refs%252Fheads%252Fmaster/folder123 be cause the base URL comes from the readme.ms. There is no way to know the URL has to start with "/list".
