Dear all,
I am experiencing a strange behaviour of eshell on emacs 26.2:
Steps to reproduce:
emacs -Q
M-x eshell
(setq pcomplete-ignore-case t)
Description:
Under some circumstances, completion of paths starting with "~" leads to
"~" being expanded to the full path and overwriting the previous text.
Example: suppose I wanted to copy the directory
~/Documents/some_directory/ to my ~/Downloads/ folder. I type
cp -r ~/doc<TAB>
and it correctly expands to
cp -r ~/Documents/
However, when I continue with
cp -r ~/Documents/my_directory ~/dow<TAB>
it expands to
cp -r ~/Docume/home/username/Downloads/
It seems related to this bug:
