Related (and possibly dup): #22072

As noted. since 10.0 baseUrl is now nested inside of e2e:

Which is why the types are complaining. As noted (#22072 (comment)), we should support this, but only for e2e testing - not component. We don't know the testingType in the spec, though, so I think we will just need to make the type allowed, and have a runtime error if you try to set baseUrl when using component testing.

I tested it out and Cypress.config('baseUrl', 'http://...') does work - it's just a typing error. I had a look and I think it's because we do Omit on baseUrl here: https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/blob/develop/cli/types/cypress.d.ts#L3054. I am thinking it's not as simple as just removing that, since we don't want baseUrl to be valid inside of cypess.config.js > component property. I think we want a new interface that is specifically for the Cypress.config(...) type.

We will look to fix this one soon - in the meantime, I hate to say it but ts-ignore is the only alternative until this fix lands.
