Description Forgotten User eDPGYP6_cn 2011-02-25 06:06:28 UTC

mkdir a a:bb a:cc <enter>
cd a<tab><tab>

It used to list:

a:b a:bb a:cc

as the options in the earlier versions of completion. But with 11.4, what happens is:

a\: a

these two are the only options that are cycled.

This completely breaks working when you have multiple build-service projects checked out.

Comment 1 Forgotten User eDPGYP6_cn 2011-02-25 06:08:25 UTC

Correction: The mkdir in the above command should read a:b a:bb a:cc <enter>

Comment 2 Forgotten User eDPGYP6_cn 2011-02-25 06:11:33 UTC

Create directories with names as follows:
a/    a:b/  a:bb/ a:c/

Now type `a<tab><tab>` it will list all names. now type `a:<tab><tab>` it will erroneously change the filename to "a:a" when clearly there is no such file existing with a:a in the filename.
