Hi everyone, I got an admittedly basic question but I'm really at my wits' end with this.
How do I enable infinite command history ? One simple suggestion I've seen online is to set HISTSIZE and HISTFILESIZE to a large number. This is not what I need, I want genuinely unconstrained history file growth. Another idea I've seen is to unset HISTSIZE and HISTFILESIZE. This doesn't seem to work, the history file is being cropped to the default of 500 lines. I'm probably missing something obvious but any help is appreciated. I'm running Bash 4.1.5 (Debian Squeeze). Kind regards, Ivan Yosifov
