Subject: [ruby-core:68615] [Ruby trunk - Bug #10997] [Rejected] String in Hash 'prepend', '<<' bug

Issue #10997 has been updated by Nobuyoshi Nakada.

Description updated
Status changed from Open to Rejected

`Hash#clone` does not clone the elements, so the value is shared.
In the last example, you assign different object.

Bug #10997: String in Hash 'prepend', '<<' bug

* Author: Johan Kim

----------------------------------------
i used with Rails console

**Only String is great**

```ruby
original = "a" #=> "a"
clone = original.clone #=> "a"
clone.prepend("prepend_") #=> "prepend_a"
clone #=> "prepend_a"
original #=> "a"
```
**but String in Hash then get some issue**

```ruby
original = { a: "a" } #=> {:a=>"a"}
clone = original.clone #=> {:a=>"a"}
clone[:a].prepend("prepend_") #=> "prepend_a"
clone #=> {:a=>"prepend_a"}
original #=> {:a=>"prepend_a"}
```
i expect `original` to `{:a=>"a"}`
**and when you use literal then works**

```ruby
original = { a: "a" } #=> {:a=>"a"}
clone = original.clone #=> {:a=>"a"}
clone[:a] = "prepend_#{clone[:a]}" #=> "prepend_a"
clone #=> {:a=>"prepend_a"}
original #=> {:a=>"a"}
```

`<<` has same issue too.
