Ubuntu 18 Autocomplete Bug? “bash: cd: too many arguments”
Autocomplete started working bad after upgrading from ubuntu 16. If I hit tab after
git checkout src/
I get something like this:
$ git checkout src/bash: cd: too many arguments
main/ test/
Coincidentally I happened to see the same using the "test" command of gnu-coreutils:
$ ls
pom.xml src target
$ test pom.xml
bash: cd: too many arguments
Are the two things maybe connected? Unfortunately I couldn't find any bug after googling it.

I had the same issue. One of my aliases had the name test, lib or root (I don't remember which one) and it was a cd command to a folder. Renaming the alias solved the problem for me.
