Bash Version: 5.3 Patch Level: 15 Release Status: release Description: I can add a non existing directory using pushd by doing following: pushd -n dir This will add the directory 'dir' at position 1 in the stack even though it does not exist This means if I try to remove the top directory with popd without argument I get following error: bash: popd: dir: No such file or directory The non existing directory can be removed using popd +1 (or the location it is in) I apologize if this is intended behavior and I am supposed to be able to add non-existing directories, therefore creating a false bug report. Repeat-By: $ pushd -n <non_existing_dir>
