Description

This is a compromise between the common case where the user only wants files with a matching suffix,
and the exceptional case when there is no file extension, or one file we don't know about.

See #7040 and others.

TODOs:

  • Changes to fish usage are reflected in user documentation/manpages.
  • Tests have been added for regressions fixed
  • User-visible changes noted in CHANGELOG.rst

@faho faho added this to the fish 3.2.0 milestone Dec 14, 2020

This looks like a great idea!

Many times when completing one of these commands, a single Tab already selects the only sensible option.
It's a bit sad to lose that.
Still, completing non-matching files seems like the least contentious solution.
