 Nextcloud in a subdir of the nginx webroot

@@ -187,155 +41,8 @@ The configuration differs from the "Nextcloud in webroot" configuration above in
 - The blocks that handle requests for paths outside of ``/nextcloud`` (i.e. ``/robots.txt`` and ``/.well-known``) are pulled out of the ``location ^~ /nextcloud`` block.
 - The block which handles `/.well-known` doesn't need a regex exception, since the rule which prevents users from accessing hidden folders at the root of the Nextcloud installation no longer matches that path.
