Hello Team,

May I please know the reason for the following behaviour of the sort command...

------------------

0 $ sort bug1_file1
b103i/pass.txt
b103/pass.txt

0 $ sort bug1_file2
b103/done.txt
b103i/done.txt

------------------

The output is same with options '-s', '-g', '-n', '-d' (used one at a time) also.

------------------

0 $ sort --version
sort (GNU coreutils) 5.97
