scoop cleanup removes all versions of app.

Created on 13 Oct 2018  路  3Comments  路  Source: lukesampson/scoop

According to scoop help cleanup should remove old versions of all the apps but when i ran scoop cleanup . after updating few apps, it removed all the versions of all apps including itself.
Is this a bug or is the scoop help misleading?

@h404bi It's same for uninstall. If you uninstall package starting with _/. all apps will be uninstalled (#2370)

You should use * to clean all outdated apps instead of .. But it's a good catch, perhaps the logic of cleanup command needs to be improved.

I guess then it should either not allow _/. or escape them as it seems they are interfering with the regex system used.
