https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2307

            Bug ID: 2307
           Summary: tab completion of filenames with spaces
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 6.7p1
          Hardware: Other
                OS: OpenBSD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5
         Component: sftp
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
          Reporter: anthony at cathet.us

Using OpenBSD -current.

sftp> mkdir foo\ bar
sftp> cd foo\ ^I

If there are any files in the current directory, but none that would
match foo\ *, this tab completes as if the filename were empty.

If there are no other files in the current directory, pressing tab has
no effect.

In both cases it should tab complete to "foo\ bar/".


Another possibly related inconsistency:

sftp> mkdir foo\ bar foo\ baz

After typing "cd foo^I", the prompt prints both alternatives and
completes to "cd foo\ ba". If you type "cd foo\ ^I", the
prompt prints
both alternatives but leaves the input string as "cd foo\ ".
