Bash completion Issue?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am experiencing (and have for some time) a strange effect with bash 
completion on my Debian (Unstable) system.  Is this a git problem, or 
something else?

When I type a normal command on the bash command line (say emacs) followed by 
the partial directory name the completion completes the directory and then 
adds a slash.  If I type a git command (say git update-index) with the same 
partial directory name it completes the directory, but then adds a space.  I 
have to backspace, manually add the slash, before continuing with the next 
directory or filename.

In debian, there seems to be a directory /etc/bash_completion.d with files for 
each of the packages, and the debian git packages have entries in there.  So 
I assume they are derived from the completion work mentioned on this list.

What seems strange to me is that nobody else has mentioned this before now.
