## In POSIX sh, ^ in place of ! in glob bracket expressions is undefined.
|
||||
|
||||
### Problematic code:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
echo foo-[^0]*.jpg
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Correct code:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
echo foo-[!0]*.jpg
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Rationale:
|
||||
|
||||
`[^c]` is frequently used in most regular expression variants to mean "any character except `c`". This is so pervasive that bash, ksh, dash, and BusyBox ash, all allow it.
|
||||
|
||||
However, strictly speaking, the only range complement syntax guaranteed to be supported across shells is `[!c]`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Exceptions:
|
||||
|
||||
If you only intend to target shells that supports this feature, you can change
|
||||
the shebang to a shell that guarantees support, or [[ignore]] this warning.
|
||||
Or just rewrite it to be on the technically correct side.
