  By default most of the shells like bash, zsh, ksh have history
  option.  But you can avoid writing the history of the current
  session to the history file by unsetting the HISTFILE environment
  variable.  So next time when you login the history of the
  previous session will not be shown.

Perhaps so, but to me it seems that OP was asking to turn off the
history recall in the current session itself.  In bash  zsh,
setting HISTSIZE may be of some value.

 Somebody know what is going on here?  I can't figure it out and
 never seen this before.

 # pkgdb -Fu ---  Updating the pkgdb ---  Checking the package
 registry database
 Stale dependency: b2evolution-0.9.2 - marked ():
 marked: Not in due form: name-version

 Here, marked seems like some sort of place holder for the
 missing dependency port.  The otherwise non empty () contain
 the port directory, under ${PORTSDIR:-/usr/ports}, of the
 dependency port.

 okay thanks for the explanation - so what is the most optimal way
 of fixing this without breaking things.

I have not looked in the portupgrade source.  Nonetheless, a
quick+dirty, and heavy handed too (if the b2evolution port is large)
would be to deinstall b2evolution  install it again, possibly
remove|update old dependencies too if you like.
