Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:2.1-4
Severity: normal
For "mv --target-directory=dest", the next argument only
completes to directories, even though auto-completion of "mv --t"
has used combined "option=value" form to include the target
directory in the first argument.
$ mkdir dest
$ mkdir sourcedir
$ touch sourcefile
$ mv --t
At this point, <tab> will correctly complete that to --target-directory=
$ mv --target-directory=d
At this point, <tab> will correctly complete that to --target-directory=dest/
$ mv --target-directory=dest/ s
BUG: This will complete to "sourcedir", ignoring the option of "sourcefile"
$ mv --target-directory=dest/ argument s
This is ok, it will see both source* possibilities.
