I keep my shell history in sqlite database since 2017. Around 120k records at this point. Never synced history from the work laptops. Only personal history. In 2017 wrote my own bash script (later optimized for zsh) to just record everything in sqlite with hooks on prompt. [1] I mostly work right now on Mac, don't need to support Linux anymore, so wrote an app for Mac, that syncs the history over iCloud, and has a GUI interface. [2] Anyway, storing years of shell history somewhere, where you can do complex searches, and actually find some magic command you run a few years ago, is priceless. - [1] https://www.outcoldman.com/en/archive/2017/07/19/dbhist/ https://www.outcoldman.com/en/archive/2017/07/19/dbhist/ - [2] https://loshadki.app/shellhistory/ https://loshadki.app/shellhistory/
