Public bug reported:

In bash 4.4, a new behaviour was introduced for cd, where it would complain if 
multiple arguments are provided. From config-top.h [1]:
 
/* Define CD_COMPLAINS if you want the non-standard, but sometimes-desired
   error messages about multiple directory arguments to `cd'. */
#define CD_COMPLAINS

It seems like this is enabled for Ubuntu. However, this behaviour
conflicts with the manual (both Ubuntu's and GNU's), which says
something similar to: "Any additional arguments following directory are
ignored."

Please revert to the old behaviour, or correct the manual. This is not a
user-configurable setting, and push is also affected.

Ubuntu 17.04
bash 4.4-2ubuntu1
