django.views.static.serve shoud have APPEND_SLASH=True

[est]

When running debug server with some .js .css file using django.views.static.serve while 'show_indexes': True, example, navigate to
​http://127.0.0.1:8000/images
when click a 1.jpg listed bellow, I was navigate to
​http://127.0.0.1:8000/1.jpg

But what I desired URL is
​http://127.0.0.1:8000/images/1.jpg

The problem is we should set APPEND_SLASH=True as default here in django.views.static.serve

I cannot recreate this. It looks to me like perhaps you do not have MEDIA_URL set properly in your settings.py file. It appears it needs to be set to '/images' in your case but your server is operating as if it were set to the default empty string.

Even if this is recreateable, it's just a bad idea. It's static media. Just specify the right URL. Django shouldn't mess with those URLs just to fix up typos in the HTML files.
