I enter the command history
It shows the last 15 commands, where are the previous 988 commands.
989 yarn android
990 /Dir/firebase_dummy_app/chatroom/node_modules/react-native/scripts/launchPackager.command ; exit;
991 yarn android
992 source ~/.bashrc
993 cd Documents
994 ls
995 rm -rf firebase_dummy_app
996 expo init
997 cd firesbaseDummy
998 yarn android
999 cd ..
1000 rm -rf firesbaseDummy
1001 /Dir/firesbaseDummy/node_modules/react-native/scripts/launchPackager.command ; exit;
1002 /Dir/firebaseChat/node_modules/react-native/scripts/launchPackager.command ; exit;
1003 history
1004 history
Even if I grep them history | grep 'rm'
for something I know I did, none of the previous commands show up
If I continue to enter terminal commands the numbers go up but I'm still limited to only 15. (command 995-1010 will be shown for example
It continues happening when I close the end the terminal app and reopen it
The terminal is zsh on MacOS Catalina
Simple Command History Navigation The easy way to get started with your command history is to simply navigate with the up and down arrow keys. Using the up key, you can scroll through previous commands one command at a time. To scroll back down the list, you can use the down arrow key.
Type “history” (without options) to see the the entire history list. You can also type ! n to execute command number n.
Use the history command to list commands that you have previously entered. The history command is a Korn shell built-in command that lists the last 16 commands entered. The Korn shell saves commands that you entered to a command history file, usually named $HOME/. sh_history.
To view your entire Terminal history, type the word “history” into the Terminal window, and then press the 'Enter' key. The Terminal will now update to display all the commands it has on record.
The history n
command, where n
is a number shows all history since line n. So in your case, history 904
will show the last 100 commands.
