Seems like livereactload is making paths absolute

See original GitHub issue

Suppose that I run this:

browserify a.js -r ./scripts/components/b.js -o c.js

Now a.js can require b.js by calling require('/scripts/components/b.js'). But if I add -p livereactload to the above that require will fail. Reading the compiled code I tried require('/Users/x/y/z/w/scripts/components/b.js') (the absolute path in my filesystem) and it worked. It seems like livereactload is somehow making paths absolute in compiled file. Is it possible to avoid this?

Released 3.1.1 which should fix the source maps bug. However, the original absolute path issue may remain so still keeping this open.
