Subject: bug#60264: 29.0.60; Strange file completion candidates for shadowed file paths
Date: Thu, 22 Dec 2022 21:57:39 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ili3xikc.fsf@daniel-mendler.de> (raw)
1. Start emacs -Q
2. C-x C-f
3. Delete the entire minibuffer input
4. Enter /etc//s
5. Press ?
You will see candidates like etc//sbin/. The candidates can get even
stranger. If you enter /etc//etc//etc/s then you will get candidates
like etc//etc//etc//sbin/. I can reproduce this bug on 27 and 29. I
haven't tried 28, but the issue should exist there too.
