    Description

      Issue Summary

      If you have a use case where you need to add only a single special character (like - + * # etc.) as the issue's summary, it will not show up in the negative JQL searches.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create an issue with a dash in the summary:
      2. Try to search using the JQL and excluding some random text for the summary like the one below:
      summary !~ "test"

      Expected Results

      As the issue's summary doesn't contain "test", it should show up in the results.

      Actual Results

      The issue will not show up in the results.

      Workaround

      You can use another string as a generic summary.
