My recommendations would be:
- Clone the git repository (https://savannah.gnu.org/git/?group=bash)
- Subscribe both bug-bash@gnu.org and help-bash@gnu.org. Try to
reproduce bug reports and report back the results.
- Read the mailing list archives
(https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/ and
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-bash/), and take note of any
reported bugs that are not answered or fixed yet in the latest `devel'
branch of the git repository.
- Some people place bug reports in the Savannah issue tracker
(https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?group=bash). You might also want to
check there and see if any of the issues reported there are still not
fixed in the latest `devel' branch.
