How to `cd` into directory with the name `-`?

Question

Here is an example. I'm creating a directory named - and I can't cd into it. The command cd - returnes me to the previous directory. And I'm a bit supprised that cd "-" works the same way. I can enter that directory using the full path ~/-, but is there other way?

user@server:~$ cd /tmp
user@server:/tmp$ cd
user@server:~$ mkdir -
user@server:~$ cd -
/tmp
user@server:/tmp$ cd
user@server:~$ cd "-"
/tmp
user@server:/tmp$ cd ~/-
user@server:~/-$

Answer 1

use instead

cd ./-

if you are in the directory above.
