Bash completion drops bazelrc files whose paths contain spaces #31342

Description

@gztong666

Description of the bug:

scripts/bazel-complete-template.bash does not preserve .bazelrc path boundaries while collecting workspace, home, imported, and --bazelrc= files. Configurations defined in an rc file whose path contains spaces are therefore absent from --config= completion.

Which category does this issue belong to?

No response

What's the simplest, easiest way to reproduce this bug? Please provide a minimal example if possible.

  1. Create a workspace in a directory containing a space.
  2. Add a .bazelrc (or an imported rc file) defining a unique config, for example build:space_config.
  3. Source scripts/bazel-complete-template.bash and request completion for bazel build --config=.
  4. Observe that space_config is missing.

The same loss occurs for quoted imported rc paths and command-line --bazelrc= paths containing spaces.

Which operating system are you running Bazel on?

Linux or macOS (Bash completion)

What is the output of bazel info release?

development version (current master)

If bazel info release returns development version or (@non-git), tell us how you built Bazel.

Source inspection and isolated script-level reproduction against the current master revision.

What's the output of git remote get-url origin; git rev-parse HEAD ?

https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel.git

If this is a regression, please try to identify the Bazel commit where the bug was introduced with bazelisk --bisect.

Not bisected. The behavior is present on the current master revision.

Have you found anything relevant by searching the web?

Searched open and closed bazelbuild/bazel issues using the affected file name and failure mode. I did not find an issue describing this specific behavior.

Any other information, logs, or outputs that you want to share?

A focused fix covering workspace, home, imported, and command-line rc paths is available in #31325.
