Dynamic segments (<name..>) not behaving as expected

[dawid2193487]

I wrote a view like this

#[get("/sample/<path..>")]
fn stream(path: PathBuf) -> Option<NamedFile> {
    let filename = Path::new("/home/dawid/a_directory").join(path.clone());
    println!("{:?}, {:?}", filename, path);
    NamedFile::open(filename).ok()
}

I would expect path to be just the part of URL after /sample/, eg. localhost:8000/sample/dir/file.txt would make path be dir/file.txt, however, path becomes the whole URL after the hostname, in this example sample/dir/file.txt
