Hello. After typing the following, then space, then Tab,
tar --exclude-vcs cBvf a.tar.bz2
the shell or whatever freezes.
Best regards,
Artur
To be exact, symlink is in the directory ~/a, and it points to ~/test and
there is also a directory ~/.java. So, after cd ~/a/symlink, there are two
../.java files -- one in the physical parent, and one in the logical
parent. The former is a directory, the latter is a plain file.
~/a/symlink$ cd .
...continuation:
~/.java$ cd ../a
~/a$ rm -r .java
~/a$ cd symlink
~/a/symlink$ cd ../ [now completion does not work]
~/a/symlink$ cd ../.java/
~/.java$
So, cd looks into the logical directory, and if the lookup fails, then it
looks into the physical directory. The cd completion from a symlink,
t
~/a$ mkdir .java
~/a$ cd symlink
~/a/symlink$ cd ../.java/
~/a/.java$
~/a/.java$ cd ../
~/a$ rm -r .java && touch .java
~/a$ cd symlink
~/a/symlink$ cd ../.java/
~/.java$
Should it really be like that?
I want the logical view, and I think there is one by now. But there is a
file missing in the logical directory, when cd ../ is completed from a
symlink.
~/projects/art/dev$ ls -la
drwxr-xr-x 6 art art 4096 2012-02-24 16:21 .bzr
lrwxrwxrwx 1 art art 18 2012-04-16 14:48 lib -> ../../hth/dev/lib/
Yes, it appears that "lib" is indeed a symlink. Is it possible to treat it
as if it were "just here" with the tab completion?
~/projects/art/dev/lib$ cd ../
.bzr/ lib/
~/projects/art/dev/lib$ cd ../src
~/projects/art/dev/src$ cd ../
.bzr/ lib/ src/
~/projects/art/dev/src$ cd ../lib
~/projects/art/dev/lib$ cd ../
.bzr/ lib/
hello, could you explain the following?
~/projects/art/dev/lib$ cd ../
.bzr/ lib/
~/projects/art/dev/lib$ cd ../src
~/projects/art/dev/src$
Artur
