I don't understand. The patch adds the ability to use
minibuffer-complete-history by pressing the TAB key while typing a
URL. The behavior I'm seeing now (in version 29.0.50), is when I type in
a URL and press tab, instead of completing, it inserts a tab
character.

The intention isn't to finish the completion automatically. Suppose a
user has "example.com/a" in their completion history. If the user types
out "example.com" and we call (minibuffer-complete-history) for them, it
will expand to "example.com/a" which is not the URL they want.

I may have misworded the commit message or be misunderstanding what you
are suggesting.
