I've tried zsh many times and it's not for me :'(

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @08:26AM (#14106187)

Yeah unfortunately it's just an opaque number now, basically.

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @02:55AM (#14104728)

I think so: http://askubuntu.com/questions/67283/is-it-possible-to-make-...

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @02:29AM (#14104613)

You should

    ln -sf /dev/null ~/.bash_history

!

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @02:06AM (#14104521)

I think it's more about the MacOS's add-ons to bash here than bash vs zsh -- but who knows!

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @01:42AM (#14104422)

Nice!

I'm quite happy that at least three historian-programmers have come together, here.

Is your ssh password `ls`? That's not a great password.

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @01:16AM (#14104325)

Ah, interesting!

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @01:15AM (#14104323)

Most recently it seems to happen on a fresh restart.

Previously, it had to do with my usage of Terminal; I've had to touch ~/.bash_sessions_disable -- /etc/bashrc_Apple_Terminal has the nitty gritty.

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @01:05AM (#14104291)

> Also, maybe you should consider backing up ~/.bash_history occasionally?

Oh yes.

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @12:53AM (#14104260)

Sounds like good security though.

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @12:51AM (#14104251)

Based on the differences between /etc/bashrc and /etc/zshrc, I don't think so, but I don't know for sure.

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @12:49AM (#14104247)

There are more people like you, I bet!

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @12:34AM (#14104189)

BRAAAAAAHMMM

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @12:30AM (#14104172)

Per the README I'm hoping to introduce a scrub command, but yeah -- if you have inline passwords in the commands you run, that's less than great.

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @12:21AM (#14104142)

zsh history, from what I've seen a long time ago, can include timestamps, which is why I added a timestamp field in the schema, though it's currently unpopulated: https://github.com/jcsalterego/historian/blob/3bf7158b163d3f...

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @12:19AM (#14104139)

Hooray!

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @12:19AM (#14104138)

FWIW, my understanding of sqlite is that it allows atomic operations against the same DB, even if there are different clients... so I would guess at worst the clobbering is minimal. I could be wrong, though.

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @12:18AM (#14104134)

The documentation has failed - it's actually just an incrementing ID right now, not a frequency! I should make a clarification soon.

Re:Historian: Because Please Stop Deleting My Bash History on Thursday April 13, 2017 @12:17AM (#14104130)

I tried!
