`$` in pathname gets transformed and the file cannot be found anymore

Environments:

• Prettier Version: 2.7.1
• Running Prettier via: CLI
• Runtime: Node.js v16.15.1
• Operating System: Ubuntu 20.04 (Windows 10 with WSL 2)
• Prettier plugins (if any): none

Steps to reproduce:

Run following command npx prettier "/home/user/project/src/$state/builder-form.ts"

Expected behavior:

prettier should not transform anything between the quotes (")

Actual behavior:

prettier removes everything from the $ until the next slash / and removes it from the path. I get following error:

[error] No files matching the pattern were found: "/home/user/project/src//builder-form.ts".

I did and couldn’t reproduce anything wrong, at least on Ubuntu. Macos’s shell might work slightly differently.

Also by escaping the $ sign I get the same error. npx prettier "/home/user/project/src/\$state/builder-form.ts"

[error] No files matching the pattern were found: "/home/user/project/src//builder-form.ts".
