How to increase the size of navigation history in IntelliJ IDEA?

Ctrl+Alt+Left Arrow or menu Navigate/Back navigates back in IntelliJ Idea. Only a limited number of times this shortcut can be used. Is there a configuration that can be used to increase the number of navigation history?

How do I increase the number of open tabs in IntelliJ?

IntelliJ IDEA limits number of tabs that you can open in the editor simultaneously (the default tab limit is 10). In the Settings/Preferences dialog ( Ctrl+Alt+S ), go to Editor | General | Editor Tabs. In the Tab closing policy section, adjust the settings according to your preferences and click OK.

How do I view IntelliJ history?

Right-click anywhere in the editor and choose Local History | Show History from the context menu. In the dialog that opens, the left-hand pane shows a list of all saved revisions of the current file with timestamps.

Using the latest IntelliJ, this is no longer hard-coded, and can be changed via the Registry.

Use Ctrl-Alt-Shift-/ (Windows) to pull up the Registry, search for "editor.navigation.history.stack.size", and edit the value.
