Subject: bug#59803: completion-at-point in shell buffer ignores some files
Date: Sat, 03 Dec 2022 12:01:16 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87tu2chhtv.fsf@graner.name> (raw)
In a *Shell* buffer, file name completion ignores file names already
present on the current line. For example, if you have a file named `foo'
and no other file starting with an f, when you type:
$ cp f<TAB> f<TAB>
the first <TAB> completes `f' to `foo', but the second <TAB> gives a `No
match' error.
Similarly, if you have files named foo1, foo2, foo3 and foo4, then:
$ mv foo1 foo2 f<TAB>
shows only foo3 and foo4 in the completions buffer.
Happens in emacs 29 but not in 28.
Nicolas
