Subject: 30.0.50; File cache completions accumulate instead of replacing
 minibuffer input
Date: Mon, 25 Dec 2023 07:54:22 +0100

With emacs -Q:

1. M-x file-cache-add-directory-using-find /path/to/emacs/
2. C-x C-f mini C-TAB
3. Observe the *Completions* buffer pop up with file cache
completions, suggesting as usual to "type M-<down> or M-<up> to move
point between completions."
4. M-<down> M-<down> M-<up> ...
5. Each candidate you highlight this way is inserted in the minibuffer
after the current input, instead of replacing the appropriate part of
the input.

I see this already in Emacs 29.1, FWIW.


Best,

Eshel
