Bug: Org-mode v3.8 tag hierarchy [9.3.3 (release_9.3.3 @ /home/user/.emacs.d/org-mode/lisp/)]

[Leon Weber]

Hi together, I recently updated from org-mode version 9.1.8 to 9.3. I 
noticed a problem with group tags / tag hierarchy in the agenda-view 
(Agenda for current week or day).

Example File:
--------------
#+TAGS: [ PARENT : CHILD1 CHILD2 ]
* test1 :CHILD1:
SCHEDULED: <2020-09-14 Mon>
* test2 :CHILD2:
SCHEDULED: <2020-09-14 Mon>

--------------
If I filter by the 'PARENT' tag, with the function 
'org-agenda-filter-by-tag' (in the agenda daily view) in version 9.1.8 I 
get all the child entries. In version 9.3.8 however this does not work 
anymore. Does anyone know if this is intentional? I didn't find anything 
in the release notes about this.

Tested on a vanilla Emacs installation version 26.3 and 27.1.


Emacs : GNU Emacs 27.1 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 
3.24.22, cairo version 1.17.3)
of 2020-08-28
Package: Org mode version 9.3.3 (release_9.3.3 @ 
/home/user/.emacs.d/org-mode/lisp/)

I can reproduce this. If I use `org-agenda` and then select `m` to Match
a TAG\PROP\TODO query, it does show all the items marked with children
tags. However, if you use `org-agenda-filter-by-tag` it returns the
empty agenda view.

Can you reproduce the problem with latest stable, aka 9.4 ?

Thanks for reporting (and thanks Palak and Ihor for confirming).

It looks like this was a regression from v9.2.  It should be fixed by
6676a97d2.  Note that, as of 9.3, org-agenda-filter-by-tag is bound to
'\' rather than '/'.
