Aug 2026 20:21:35 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Machine Type: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
Bash Version: 5.3
Patch Level: 15
Release Status: release
Description:
The command string is not stored correctly in the history when multiple
commands are chained together with '|&' on multiple lines.
Repeat-By:
1. Open an interactive Bash shell.
2. Type the first part of a pipeline, for example: `: |&`.
3. Press <Return> to continue on a new line and type the second part. For
example: `:`.
4. The command executes correctly, but the following is stored in the
history: `: |&; :`.
The problem does not occur when the pipeline is chained only with `|`. The
correct command is saved in the history: `: | :`.
