.tmux: Getting invalid or unknown command bind-key -T in tmux 2.8

[MadaraUchiha]

Steps:

1. Updated the repo with git pull
2. Started a new tmux session with tmux new-session -s name

Expected:

tmux session starts without errors

Actual:

Got the following error:

/tmp/tmp.1ztDiEo2jg:9: invalid or unknown command: bind-key    -T prefix       "                 split-window -c '#{pane_current_path}'

Hitting CTRL+C on it will continue with the creation of the tmux session. Attaching to the session shows no error. Creating new panes works.

Additional Info

• OS Version: Ubuntu 19.04
• tmux Version: tmux 2.8 (latest in apt)
• Shell: zsh

Note: I have not yet tried to install tmux 3.0 to see if it repros there, but it _is_ worth mentioning that 2.8 is the version supplied by apt install tmux.

Can you please tell me which commit you're using?

[MadaraUchiha]

1cf813f, current master.

git checkout master^ to return to one commit behind the current one works. I see no error when starting the session.

I had also forgot to mention that despite the error, hitting CTRL+C will continue with the session, although I suspect some bindings wouldn't work.
