Control: tags -1 = unreproducible I can't reproduce it, so setting the unreproducible tag.
I'll leave this bug open for some time, then, if no one opposes, I'll close it. Steps to [not] reproduce: $ mkdir /tmp/files/ $ for i in `seq -w 1 200`; do touch /tmp/files/$i; done $ scp localhost:/tmp/files/ <HIT TAB TWICE> Display all 200 possibilities? (y or n) <HIT y> /tmp/files/001 /tmp/files/051 /tmp/files/101 /tmp/files/151 /tmp/files/002 /tmp/files/052 /tmp/files/102 /tmp/files/152 /tmp/files/003 /tmp/files/053 /tmp/files/103 /tmp/files/153 /tmp/files/004 /tmp/files/054 /tmp/files/104 /tmp/files/154 /tmp/files/005 /tmp/files/055 /tmp/files/105 /tmp/files/155 [...] /tmp/files/045 /tmp/files/095 /tmp/files/145 /tmp/files/195 /tmp/files/046 /tmp/files/096 /tmp/files/146 /tmp/files/196 /tmp/files/047 /tmp/files/097 /tmp/files/147 /tmp/files/197 /tmp/files/048 /tmp/files/098 /tmp/files/148 /tmp/files/198 /tmp/files/049 /tmp/files/099 /tmp/files/149 /tmp/files/199 /tmp/files/050 /tmp/files/100 /tmp/files/150 /tmp/files/200 $ scp localhost:/tmp/files/ <HIT TAB ONCE> Display all 200 possibilities? (y or n) That's exactly the same behaviour as `ls'.
