Bash completion ends after directory

[DuckDuckWhale]

Summary

When I press tab on a directory, the completion ends and starts the second argument. This is very annoying when navigating to find a file and I'd have to backspace and / and tab again after every level.

Reproduction Steps

I tried this:

1. hx con<tab>the<tab>

I expected this to happen:

hx contrib/themes or hx contrib/themes/

Instead, this happened:

hx contrib theme.toml

I have the same problem on NixOS-unstable, helix 22.08.1 (66276ce) and bash.

#2022 added completion for bash, fish and zsh. I tested fish and zsh and they seem to work just fine.

I will try to fix this, but I have no idea how bash completions work (yet). Maybe @d12bb could drop a hint or two?

Unfortunately no. I don't use Bash myself and only hacked this part together using lots of Google and Stack Overflow. Glad you've found a solution :)
