[Bug 460239] Re: bash-completition wrong escapes special characters for mercurial

[Peter Cordes]

OPs testcase works now.  Even did hg init in my tmp dir, to test that it
was filtering hg add to only show not-already-added paths.  Reopen this
if you can still reproduce, and give us a testcase.  (touch / mkdir some
stuff, hg init, and say what you typed and where you pressed tab)

Title:
  bash-completition wrong escapes special characters for mercurial

Status in bash-completion package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: bash-completion

  When I do
  # hg add Ann<TAB>
  I get
  # hg add Annex A.txt

  Should be:
  # hg add Annex\ A.txt

  But! If I have file in the same directory, which name has same first letters, everything is OK.
  E.g.:
  # ls Ann*
  Annex A.txt
  Annex B.txt
  # hg add Ann<TAB>
  I get
  # hg add Annex\ 

  So, completition doesn't escape spaces (and other characters like '&')
  for mercurial when there is only one possibility for completition.
  When there are several choices all is OK.
