Subject: 28.0.50: dired-read-shell-command: handle empty input properly [PATCH]
Date: Tue, 27 Apr 2021 15:02:43 -0400

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Function dired-read-shell-command was accepting an empty input. This is
a bug because it then passes the empty input as a legitimate command
which is silently processed (in error) by dired, eventually to return a
completion message.

The attached patch fixes that, and also validates the entered command as
a valid shell executable.
