I have an executable in a subdirectory of the current directory:
~ $ ls -l src/users
-rwxr-xr-x 1 me users 1001K Nov 17 18:52 src/users*
I try to execute it by typing sr
and then clicking tab. There happen to be two possibilities for completion (one directory in my home and one executable in /usr/bin/) so I'd expect bash to show them to me:
~ $ sr
src/ srptool
Instead, it completes the executable name srptool
(ignoring the directory with my executable).
I tested with another directory name and found out that when the only possible completion is directory name, bash completes it as expected.
I experience the same behavior in bash 3.2.53 on Mac and 4.3.39 on Linux.
I remember this working before. I'm not sure whether it's a bash or a readline issue. Any ideas?
./sr
?
