Hello,
since Bash-5.1-rc1 <CTRL-R> doesn't work for me as previously.
I have the following entries in my history:
man a
man b
Now I type '<CTRL-R> m a n' and get:
(reverse-i-search)`man': man b
Now I type '<CTRL-R>' again.
What I would expect (and what I got with 5.0) is:
(reverse-i-search)`man': man a
Instead I get
(reverse-i-search)`': man b
Note the empty search string.
Thanks for the report. It's not easy to reproduce, and, as you later note,
requires the `C' or `POSIX' locales and things to be done in a certain
order, but I believe I was able to track it down. It will be fixed in
bash-5.1-rc2.
