Hi,

Not sure if that is a bug or not, but I noticed a strange behavior of find-file in some specific situations with Emacs 28.2. Say that I have three files in a given directory:

.
├── landmarks2.tps
├── landmarks.tps
└── script.R

1. Open Emacs with emacs -q in this directory.
2. Doing C-x C-f TAB proposes only one candidate, script.R, when I obviously expected three candidates. (Then, if you start typing 'l' in the minibuffer, you indeed get landmarks.tps and landmarks2.tps as candidates, but I'm not sure why they are not proposed initially.)

All the best,
F.
