infer conditional array rest unknown

🕗 Version & Regression Information

• I was unable to test this on prior versions than 4.1 because it uses template literal types added in 4.1

💻 Code

Using code from the #40336 description restricted to strings only:

type Join<S extends string[], D extends string> =
	S extends [] ? '' :
	S extends [string] ? `${S[0]}` :
	S extends [string, ...infer R] ? `${S[0]}${D}${Join<R, D>}` :
	string;

🙁 Actual behavior

R is inferred as being unknown[].

🙂 Expected behavior

R should be inferred as being string[].

Commencez par la reproduction TypeScript Playground liée et confirmez que le paramètre rest est inféré comme unknown[] plutôt que string[]. Suivez ensuite l’inférence du compilateur pour les types conditionnels du type Join indiqué, puis vérifiez que rest est inféré comme string[] sans modifier le comportement attendu des autres types conditionnels.
