No syntax error on my end. What's your bash version?

~> bash --version
GNU bash, version 5.2.15(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)

[XhstormR]

It uses the MacOS default bash.

┗━━❯ whence bash       
bash is /bin/bash
┗━━❯ bash --version  
GNU bash, version 3.2.57(1)-release (x86_64-apple-darwin22)

All GNU software that comes with macos by default are severely outdated due to licensing reasons. Upgrade your bash version and the problem should go away.

Unless @luukvbaal wants to maintain bash v3 compatibility, I don't think we have any plans to support bash from 2007, so closing this issue.
