Delete Branch "%!s(<nil>)"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
System Information
Operating system: Windows 10
Graphics card: Built-in Intel on HP laptop
Blender Version
Broken: 2.80
Worked: 2.79
Short description of error
Pressing "A" on the keyboard often does not deselect all vertices while in Edit Mode.
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Based on the default startup or an attached .blend file (as simple as possible).
In default startup, press Tab to switch into Edit Mode. Press "A" once to select all vertices. Press "A" again to deselect all vertices. Sometimes this works, sometimes it does not.

[EDIT] Selection and deselection work as expected and designed. To deselect you must use
Alt+Aor double pressA, this changes was made many months ago in 2.80Beta ageAdded subscriber: @moisessalvador
It's not as before. Pressing A once always selects, and pressing Alt+A deselects. You can also double tap A to deselect but it has to be fast. If you want to use the old behaviour from 2.79, go to Preferences, keymap, and click on Select All toggles

Previous comments are correct. This seems to work as designed. Closing the report.
