System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.19045-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 536.23

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.6.1, branch: blender-v3.6-release, commit date: 2023-07-17 12:50, hash: 8bda729ef4dc
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

Short description of error
There is a right-click pop-up menu in the Outliner that indicates that the Home key should be pressed to "Show Hierarchy." This does not appear to work, it hides the hierarchy instead. Shift-A seems to show the entire hierarchy.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
1 Create Object
2 Create Armature
3 Add multiple bones
4 Show bone hierarchy in Outliner
5 Press "Home" key
6 Observe that the bone hierarchy is hidden, not shown.

[Based on the default startup or an attached .blend file (as simple as possible)]

This one is for object hierarchies, the operator description reads as

Open all object entries and close all others

So it basically does what it is supposed to do

The menu entry should probably be "Show Object Hierarchy" though.

The Shift + A shortcut is for the Expand/Collapse All operator [this is missing from OUTLINER_MT_context_menu_view]

These are not really bugs, will ping @pablovazquez though, might be a nice improvement

Closing as this menu item has been altered to be more explicit on what it does, in #114139
